第2653章 CXX

All bear a female face of pallid dye, And seven in number are the horrid band;

Emaciated with hunger, lean, and dry;

Fouler than death; the pinions they expand Ragged, and huge, and shapeless to the eye;

The talon crook'd; rapacious is the hand;

Fetid and large the paunch; in many a fold, Like snake's, their long and knotted tails are rolled.
