     […] Morat ! the proud, the patriot field ! where man ¶ May gaze on ghastly trophies of the slain, ¶ Nor blush for those who conquered on that plain ; ¶ Here Burgundy bequeath'd his tombless host, ¶ A bony heap, through ages to remain, ¶ Themselves their monument ;— the Stygian coast ¶ Unsepulchred they roam'd, and shriek'd each wandering ghost.
