 V

    The troubled river knew them, And smoothed his yellow foam1, And gently rocked the cradle That bore the fate of Rome. The ravening2 she-wolf knew them, And licked them o'er and o'er, And gave them of her own fierce milk, Rich with raw flesh and gore3. Twenty winters, twenty springs, Since then have rolled away； And to-day the dead are living： The lost are found to-day.
