/ Thou lov'st to look on myrtles green, / And the narcissus bright of hue; / I love the blaze of sabres keen, / I love the dagger's flash to view.
Thou, thou may'st drink the rosy wine / From golden goblets sculptured o'er; / From foemen's skulls the joy be mine / To drink my foemen's reeking gore.
