CANTO THE FIRST.

II.

The chief of Lara is return'd again:
And why had Lara cross'd the bounding main?
Left by his sire, too young such loss to know,
Lord of himself; - that heritage of woe,
That fearful empire which the human breast
But holds to rob the heart within of rest! ?
With none to check, and few to point in time
The thousand paths that slope the way to crime;
Then, when he most required commandment, then
Had Lara's daring boyhood govern'd men.
It skills not, boots not, step by step to trace
His youth through all the mazes of its race;
Short was the course his restlessness had run,
But long enough to leave him half undone.

George Gordon Byron, Lord Byron (1788-1824) ByronLong
