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! AND LET HUGE AGUE WITH THUNDER'S BATTER DUTY BE STILL MY DOOM THOUGH DROWNING COME IN LIQUID GLOOM FIRST DUTY DUTY NEXT AND DUTY LAST I TURRET RIVET ME HERE TO DUTY FAST
d interblend therewith the calm, And build a goodly style upon your bearing. Escaped the gale of outer ocean-- Cribbed in a craft which like a log Was washed by every billow’s motion-- By night you heard of Og The huge; nor felt your courage clog At tokens of his onset grim: You marked the sunk ship’s flag-staff slim, Lit by her burning sister’s heart; You marked, and mused: “Day brings the trial: Then be it proved if I have part With men whose manhood never took denial.” A prayer went up--a champion’s. Morning Beheld you in the Turret walled by adamant, where a spirit forewarning And all-deriding 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?
