Well, if your pistol ball by chance + 

The comrade of your youth should strike, + 

Who by a haughty word or glance + 

Or any trifle else ye like + 

You o’er your wine insulted hath⁠— + 

Or even overcome by wrath + 

Scornfully challenged you afield⁠— + 

Tell me, of sentiments concealed + 

Which in your spirit dominates, + 

When motionless your gaze beneath + 

He lies, upon his forehead death, + 

And slowly life coagulates⁠— + 

When deaf and silent he doth lie + 

Heedless of your despairing cry? + 
