Lines Written on the Window of his Jail the Night before his Execution. Let them bestow on every airth a limb; Then open all my veins, that I may swim To thee, my Maker! in that crimson lake; Then place my parboiled head upon a stake Scatter my ashesstrew them in the air; Lord! since thou knowst where all these atoms are, Im hopeful thoult recover once my dust, And confident thoult raise me with the just.
