CANCELLED STANZA OF THE MASK OF ANARCHY
[Published by H. Buxton Forman, The Mask of Anarchy (Facsimile of Shelley's MS.), 1887.]
(For which stanzas LXVIII, LXIX have been substituted.)

Like the dead from putrid graves,
Troops of starvelings gliding come,
Living Tenants of a tomb.
Like the dead from putrid graves,
