Thomas Babington Macaulay Quote

Those trees in whose grim shadow
The ghastly priest doth reign,
The priest who slew the slayer,
And shall himself be slain.


Lays of Ancient Rome (1842) 'The Battle of Lake Regillus' st. 10


Those trees in whose grim shadow The ghastly priest doth reign, The priest who slew the slayer, And shall himself be slain.

Those trees in whose grim shadow The ghastly priest doth reign, The priest who slew the slayer, And shall himself be slain.

Those trees in whose grim shadow The ghastly priest doth reign, The priest who slew the slayer, And shall himself be slain.

Those trees in whose grim shadow The ghastly priest doth reign, The priest who slew the slayer, And shall himself be slain.
