Koskiusko Annotated

O what a loud and fearful shriek was there,
&nbspAs though a thousand souls one death-groan pour'd!
&nbspAh me! they saw beneath a Hireling's sword
Their Koskiusko fall! Through the swart air
(As pauses the tir'd Cossac's barbarous yell
&nbspOf Triumph) on the chill and midnight gale
&nbspRises with frantic burst or sadder swell
The dirge of murder'd Hope! while Freedom pale
Bends in such anguish o'er her destin'd bier,
&nbspAs if from eldest time some Spirit meek
&nbspHad gather'd in a mystic urn each tear
That ever on a Patriot's furrow'd cheek
Fit channel found; and she had drain'd the bowl
In the mere wilfulness, and sick despair of soul!
