But mine, and mine I loved, and mine I praised,
And mine that I was proud on--mine so much
That I myself was to myself not mine,

Hath drops too few to wash her clean again,
And salt too little which may season give
To her foul tainted flesh!

of his own conscience.

Displicet auctori. Prima est haec ultio, quod se
Judice nemo nocens absolvitur.]

However boldly their warm blood was spilt,
Their life was shame, their epitaph was guilt;
And this they knew and felt, at least the one,
The leader of the hand he had undone,--
Who, born for better things, had madly set
His life upon a cast, which linger'd yet.
