Capitolo 27
their song changed and they saw another meaning in the name of Alexander
also._)
Then the Name to Ilion came
On God flame is thought-carrying out,
You a revenge and a token
Of the unfaith to bread broken,
Of the hearth of betrayed God,
Against them of who bawls inflated
Boasting himself/herself/itself than in their prize they contained
And the boast of the clear interceptor
And the song that his/her brothers have done
'Half the wedding twists to burn;
You cultivate, sees, the ancient City
Of King Priam turned, and turning
Taken a new song for his/her culture,
A song changed and full of the pity,
With to whine of a lost nation;
And she changed the name of the bridegroom:
Calls him/it Paris Ghastly-wed;
For his/her children it was with the corpse,
And his/her life a lamentation,
'Half blood and flame that it burns.

beast of prey,_)
There was once here is a reared of the herdsman,
In his/her his/her own house, so histories say,
The pup of a lion, a milk-fed thing
It is soft before in the life you/he/she is opening
Among the babies of the herd;
The happy children loved well him,
And the old men smiled, and oft, they says,
In the arm of men as a child he placed,
Bright-dagli eyes, and toward the hand that has provoked him
Eagerly giving birth for food or play.
Then on an outflashed of the day the sudden one
The anger of the brood of lion of yore;
He paid his/her debt to them the fed one
With wrack of herds and slaughter red,
Yea, beaten him a great unbidden of the party,
You cultivate the whole house-way they worked with coagulated blood;
A sight the slaves abandoned cried from,
A great red slayer, a-foam of beard,
Tall-priest of some blood-accursed altar
God had lifted against that house.
(_So was it with Helen in Troy._)
And as I call the thing that has come
To the first time in the city of Ilion?
A dream of the peace calls not it says,
A secret joy in a gold fog,
