LXI.

Success seemed his;--but secret, in the height

And pride of transport; as he set at nought

And taunts her guardian power; infernal light

Shot from his eye, with guilt and treachery fraught.

Haply it was but Nature:--she bestows

Intuitive preception, and while art

O'ertasks himself with guile, loves to disclose

The dark soul in the eye, to warn th' o'ertrusting heart.
