But Splendors wane. The sea fight yields No front of old display; The garniture, emblazonment, And heraldry all decay. BUT SPLENDORS WANE THE SEA FIGHT YIELDS NO FRONT OF OLD DISPLAY THE GARNITURE EMBLAZONMENT AND HERALDRY ALL DECAY
ing called: “Man, darest thou--desperate, unappalled-- Be first to lock thee in the armored tower? I have thee now; and what the battle-hour To me shall bring--heed well--thou’lt share; This plot-work, planned to be the foeman’s terror, To thee may prove a goblin-snare; Its very strength and cunning--monstrous error!” “Stand up, my heart; be strong; what matter If here thou seest thy welded tomb? And let huge Og with thunders batter-- Duty be still my doom, Though drowning come in liquid gloom; First duty, duty next, and duty last; Ay, Turret, rivet me here to duty fast!--” So nerved, you fought wisely and well; And live, twice live in life and story; But over your Monitor dirges swell, In wind and wave that keep the rites of glory. The Temeraire.[3] _(Supposed to have been suggested to an Englishman of the old order by the fight of the Monitor and Merrimac.)_ The gloomy hulls, in armor grim, Like clouds o’er moors have met, And prove that oak, and iron, and man Are tough in fibre yet.
