Which way these took they pointed, and I went

Like fire after. Oh, the thought was good

That they were on before! And much it meant

To know she lived still; she, whose image stood

Like flame before me, making turbulent

Each heart-beat with her wrongs, that were fierce food

Unto my hate that, "Courage!" cried, "Rest not!

Think of her there, and let thy haste be hot!"
