第3231章 XIII

The holy priests within Biserta's wall, Pray with their grieving people, and in tears, Aye beat their bosoms, and for succour call Upon their Mahomet, who nothing hears.

What vigils, offerings, and what gifts withal Were promised silently, amid their fears!

What temples, statues, images were vowed, In memory of their bitter woes, aloud!
