[graphic]

With that twice-batter'd God of Palestine ;

And mooned Ashtaroth,

Heaven's queen and mother both,

Now sits not girt with tapers' holy shine;

The Libyck Hammon shrinks his horn,

In vain the Tyrian maids their wounded Thammuz mourn.

[graphic][subsumed]
[graphic][subsumed]

And sullen Moloch, fled,

Hath left in shadows dread

His burning idol all of blackest hue;

In vain with cymbals' ring

They call the grisly king,

In dismal dance about the furnace blue :

The brutish Gods of Nile as fast,

Isis, and Orus, and the dog Anubis, haste.
