He must not float upon his watery bier Unwept, and welter to the parching wind, Without the meed of some melodious tear.
Page 451 - my spear is indeed red with the blood of your subjects, killed in battle, and I could now give it a deeper stain by dipping it in your own; but this would not build up my towns, nor bring to life the thousands who fell in the woods.
