Lyrics and Legends.
At that moment broke there
News of death.
Faster yet, and faster
Flew that wail
Of the dread disaster,
Till the tale
Over all the city
Cast its gloom
Of dismay and pity
For such doom.
When the rumors rang there
At the start,
More than one man sprang there
Sick at heart.
One thus fearing, waited,
Dumb with fear
For the friend "half hated,"
Now so dear.
