'O miracle of women,' said the book,'O noble heart who, being strait-besiegedBy this wild king to force her to his wish,Nor bent, nor broke, nor shunned a soldier's death,But now when all was lost or seemed as lost—Her stature more than mortal in the burstOf sunrise, her arm lifted, eyes on fire—Brake with a blast of trumpets from the gate,And, falling on them like a thunderbolt,She trampled some beneath her horses' heels,And some were whelmed with missiles of the wall,And some were pushed with lances from the rock,And part were drowned within the whirling brook:O miracle of noble womanhood!'
