_her_ locks are yellow as gold:

And shan he;

And twain were playing dice;

Quotled thrice.
A gust of erte up behind
And hro his bones;

And cursd me h his ee.
Four times ?fty living men,
ith never a sigh or groan,
ithump, a lifeless lump
they droppd down one by one.
their bodies ?y,--
to bliss or woe;
And every soul it passd me by,
Like the whiz of my Cross-bow.
