The Ruin |
| Shattered by Fate! |
| The castles rend asunder |
| The work of giants moldereth away |
| Its towers crumble |
| Aquae Sulis, in ruin |
| The mortar white with frost |
| The mighty men who built it, they of giants renown |
| Departed hence, undone by death, are held |
| Fast in the earth’s embrace |
| While overhead for living men |
| A hundred generations pass |
| Long this red wall, now mossy gray, withstood |
| While kingdom followed kingdom in the land |
| Wide-wasting was the battle where they fell |
| Plague-laden days upon the city came: |
| Yet the wall surrounded all with its bright bosom |
| There stood the courts of stone |
| Hence to reign hereafter, the Angle! |
