Excerpt: ... Of 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 whelm''d with missiles of the wall, And some were push''d with lances from the rock, And part were drown''d within the whirling brook: O miracle of noble womanhood!
