[_He kneels as he takes the child._
_Zapolya._ Take him! And if we be pursued, I charge thee, Flee thou and leave me! Flee and save thy king! 515
[_Then as going off, she looks back on the palace._
Thou tyrant's den, be called no more a palace!
The orphan's angel at the throne of heaven Stands up against thee, and there hover o'er thee A Queen's, a Mother's, and a Widow's curse.
Henceforth a dragon's haunt, fear and suspicion 520 Stand sentry at thy portals! Faith and honour, Driven from the throne, shall leave the attainted nation: And, for the iniquity that houses in thee, False glory, thirst of blood, and l.u.s.t of rapine, (Fateful conjunction of malignant planets) 525 Shall shoot their blastments on the land. The fathers Henceforth shall have no joy in their young men, And when they cry: Lo! a male child is born!
The mother shall make answer with a groan.
For b.l.o.o.d.y usurpation, like a vulture, 530 Shall clog its beak within Illyria's heart.
Remorseless slaves of a remorseless tyrant, They shall be mocked with sounds of liberty, And liberty shall be proclaimed alone To thee, O Fire! O Pestilence! O Sword! 535 Till Vengeance hath her fill.--And thou, s.n.a.t.c.hed hence, Poor friendless fugitive! with mother's wailing, Offspring of Royal Andreas, shalt return, With trump and timbrel-clang, and popular shout, In triumph to the palace of thy fathers! [_Exeunt._
