“ Riming of sweat in the furrows,
⁠Black'ning of blood on the stones.
And they who kneel at the chancel
⁠Gaze forward, they dare not look back.
For white are the "pillars," and bitter,
⁠That warn by the soul-clutching track. ”

“ Eyes of flame and a heart of hell,
Voice like the toll of a funeral bell;
Thews of steel, and velvet paws,
Rapier fangs and dagger claws.
A soul? the ravished soul of a man,
Bound by the arts of the devil clan ”
