In tlie cleft of the rocks below Sak is lying 
one slain whose blood drips not without vengeance. 
He left the burden to me and departed, 
and I take up the load lightly and bear it— 
A heritage of bloodshed to me the son of 
his sister, one dauntless—his knot none looses, 
Downcast of eyes, dripping poison, like as 
the hooded asp that spits venom, the adder.
