Présentation de l'éditeur

Angel said to Charlemagne, jf The guardian angel of his life and weal, A rise, arise! so God commands, and steal! The King awoke, and said My senses reel, Heed pay I none to dreams so wildly vain. But scarcely had again the power of sleep Sent the King seyelids rest from wearying days, When came again the A ngel, and his gaze Fixed on his ward; and all his heavenly ways Showed he was charged with God sown warn ings deep. A rise! A rise! OK ing, nor make delay! Ye must foul Satan snest invade with fire! Thieves rob ye of your crown, and in the mire Would trample dead our times most honored sire! A rise and steal, I beg, entreat and pray! The King arose, in armor full him clad, His trustiest sword then buckled to his side, And ventured forth to see what might betide; But found all sleeping, sentry, servant, guide; The eyes of all the Angel freighted had.
