Oh! God! what a sight met fair Imogine’s eyes!

What words can express her dismay and surprise,

When a skeleton’s head was exposed.

All present then uttered a terrified shout;

All turned with disgust from the scene.

The worms, they crept in, and the worms, they crept out,

And sported his eyes and his temples about,

While the spectre addressed Imogine.
