There keen Indignation shall dart on his prey,
 Which spurning Contempt shall redeem from his ire....Read more of this...



by Byron, George (Lord)
...let through the night-air sang, 
Too nearly, deadly aim'd to err? 
'Tis thine — Abdallah's Murderer! 
The father slowly rued thy hate, 
The son hath found a quicker fate: 
Fast from his breast the blood is bubbling, 
The whiteness of the sea-foam troubling — 
If aught his lips essay'd to groan, 
The rushing billows choked the tone!

The shouts that shook the midnight-bay 
Are silent; but so...Read more of this...

by Tennyson, Alfred Lord
..., Art 
And Science, Caryatids, lifted up 
A weight of emblem, and betwixt were valves 
Of open-work in which the hunter rued 
His rash intrusion, manlike, but his brows 
Had sprouted, and the branches thereupon 
Spread out at top, and grimly spiked the gates. 

A little space was left between the horns,
