TO A DROP OF POISON by JOHN BANISTER TABB

First Line: AS ONCE, THE SEAL OF SOLOMON BENEATH
Last Line: FATE-BOUND HIS FOND DELIVERER TO SLAY.
Subject(s): SOLOMON (10TH CENTURY B.C.);
As once, the seal of Solomon beneath,
The genius in bonds, rebellious lay;
So lieth here a mightier captive death,
Fate-bound his fond deliverer to slay.
