George Gordon Byron - Windsor Poetics : Lines Composed On The Occasion Of His Royal Highness The Prince Regent Being Seen
Work rating: Low

Famed for contemptuous breach of sacred ties,
By headless Charles see heartless Henry lies;
Between them stands another sceptred thing--
It moves, it reigns--in all but name, a king: 
 
Charles to his people, Henry to his wife,
- In him the double tyrant starts to life:
Justice and death have mix`d their dust in vain,
Each royal vampire wakes to life again.
Ah, what can tombs avail!--since these disgorge
The blood and dust of both--to mould a George.
