And past those dreaded axes she innocently ran,
With bright frank brow that had not learned to blush at gaze of

And up the Sacred Street she turned, and, as she danced along,
She warbled gayly to herself lines of the good old song,
How for a sport the princes came spurring from the camp,
And found Lucrece, combing the fleece, under the midnight lamp.
