Leaps like a flame, a flame encharmed
To fire the pyramid heaven-spanned
Wherein dead Pharaoh sits and stares
Swathed in the wrappings of the tomb,
With eyes whose horror flits and flares
Like corpse-lights glimmering in the gloom
Till all’s a blaze, one roar of flame,
Death universal, locked and linked :—
Aha! one names the awful Name—
The twin red planets are extinct.
