• Prostrate on earth the bleeding warrior lies,
  And Isr'el's beauty on the mountains dies.
  How are the mighty fallen!
  Hush'd be my sorrow, gently fall my tears,
  Lest my sad tale should reach the alien's ears:
  Bid Fame be dumb, and tremble to proclaim
  In heathen Gath, or Ascalon, our shame
  Lest proud Philistia, lest our haughty foe,
  With impious scorn insult our solemn woe.

  the soft hush of it
  moving finally
