THE JEWISH SOLDIER

When into the cold grave again the tempest sweeps him back;
And every night at midnight this scene is acted o’er.
The soldier’s curses, deep and dread, are gathering more and more.
They grow and grow; the tempest’s wings on to Gatschina bear
Those curses keen, and scatter them upon the palace there.
