| 207. Jugurtha |
| | | By Henry Wadsworth Longfellow |
| |
| |
| HOW cold are thy baths, Apollo! | |
| Cried the African monarch, the splendid, | |
| As down to his death in the hollow | |
| Dark dungeons of Rome he descended, | |
| Uncrowned, unthroned, unattended; | 5 |
| How cold are thy baths, Apollo! | |
| |
| How cold are thy baths, Apollo! | |
| Cried the Poet, unknown, unbefriended, | |
| As the vision, that lured him to follow, | |
| With the mist and the darkness blended, | 10 |
| And the dream of his life was ended; | |
| How cold are thy baths, Apollo! | |
