One stone knight, eagles guard his side
Here the Gods toss fire; and mortals sleep
One stone knight, face in opposition
Here the Gods tossed fire; and mortal wept
Here the Gods set stone; and mortals built
Here the Gods set light; and mortals wilt and melt 

The sacrifice content,
the harnessed poor
The unsure chaine 

Sixteen sentinels; one face between each pair
Here the Gods look down; while mortals vie
Immovable—only their stone [bad word] Here the Gods did frown; eighty thousand die 

The sacrifice content,
the harnessed poor
The unsure chained
