Destruction of Sennacherib

• "The Assyrian came down like the wolf on the fold, And his cohorts were gleaming in purple and gold"
• "The sheen of their spears was like stars on the sea, When the blue wave rolls nightly on deep Galilee."
• "Like the leaves of the forest when Summer is green, [...] Like the leaves of the forest when Autumn hath blown,"
• "And the tents were all silent, the banners alone, The lances unlifted, the trumpet unblown."
• "For the Angel of Death [...] breathed in the face of the foe as he passed;[...] their hearts but once heaved, and forever grew still!"
• "And the might of the Gentile, unsmote by the sword, Hath melted like snow in the glance of the Lord!"
