Our bending author hath pursued the story.
In little room confining mighty men.”

Yet ever runs she with reverted face,
And looks and listens for the boy behind:
For he, alas! is blind!
O’er rough and smooth with even step he passed,
And knows not whether he be first or last.”
—Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)
