School Assessed Coursework. Basically, they're assignments that are meant to be completed in class under supervision, which count up to your overall score at the end of high school.

Okay. So,here you will post either a poem you wrote yuourself,or a poem written by anybody else,or even th lyrics of a song you like very much...I think it may work...I took a lot of thinking whether to post this or not,cuz now im gonna post a poem i wrote myself...But since im not that good at doing it...I know somebody who is,but i dont know if the person would rather stay anonymous,so i wont say a word...*wink*

Okay.so here goes.if u dont like it(which is the most likely thing to happen),just dont diss it too bad,ok?:)

Should I run to you or should I just hide?
Should I give up on you or should I try?
Should I just forget my love for you?
Won't you please tell me what to do?

Should I try to forget your eyes?
Should I try to stop believing in lies?
Or should I just tell you that I love you?
Would you then tell me: I love you too?

Should I just let all of my feelings go?
Or should I allow my emotions to flow?
Should I confess what I'm feeling inside?
Should I swallow or ignore my pride?

Should I stop hating your girlfriend?
Should I believe that that relationship will end?
Should I tell you all that she's been up to?
Or would that make you hate me too?

Should I just try to protect your heart?
Should I then try to set you two apart?
Would that just make you suffer more?
Or would you finally be able to soar?

Should I try to make you catch my smile?
Should I try to talk to you for a while?
Could this sweet dream ever come true?
Or should I just let go of you...?

Its bad isnt it?sorry...ah well,anyways,that wight is off me now,i posted it...*phew*
:)just post and share,ppl...post and share...;)

I was going to make this topic :P

Very nice poem, good theme going through and is quite relevant to a lot of us.

The one below is one of my personal favourites:

Riding Out the Storm
By Scott Lee

Many who tread the path alone
Never chose to do so,
Many who cannot turn back
Remain ever doubtful.
Their fate, it seems, is just forlorn,
They are riders of the storm.

He knows not sadness
He knows not shame,
He knows not pride
He knows not fame.
No happiness when he was born,
He is a rider of the storm.

From this path he shall not part
Ever true he will remain.
An emptiness inside his heart
His will overcomes his pain.
In his mind, he is torn
He is a rider of the storm.

He has a spirit of fire,
A flame that forever lasts,
A strength that cannot be acquired
To defeat the shadows of the past.
Ever he strides towards the dawn,
He is a rider of the storm.

In fear, there is courage,
In darkness, there is light.
Bravery is nourished,
Without giving up the fight.
Nothing he will ever mourn,
He is a rider of the storm.

Where now is the heart that was broken?
Where is the soul that is gone?
Like wind in the trees that have spoken,
The will of a wanderer is strong.
No longer is his fate forlorn,
He is a rider of the storm.

wow,great poem!!would luv to add my favs here too,but most of them are portuguese so...nobody would understand them anyway...

ah well,since i got it going on...ill post another one i wrote myself...

I lie here alone with broken wings
With my own quiet thoughts and dreams
I could do a million crazy things
And no one would care (or so it seems)

Each day I have to open my eyes
I just feel sorry that I must do so
I seem to live covered up with lies
And nobody even wants to know

Does anyone know the meaning of loneliness?
Does anyone know what it's like to be alone?
And feel like you're full of a certain emptiness
Like you're here in this world, but on your own?

Sometimes I feel I haven't been loved before
And not even my friends would stand up for me
But sometimes I feel I don't even care anymore
And I wished they would all just forget about me

Ah, you have talent there. The loneliness theme is really appealing when put into words.

To change the tone:
---
Shall I Compare Thee To a Summer’s Day?

You are like a Summer’s Day,
Yet more lovely, and more warm.
Winds may shake the buds of May,
Too swift does Summer grow weary and worn.
Sometimes the Sun shines too bright,
And often it is never seen.
Every beauty fades from light,
Such has nature ever been.
But your beauty will not go away,
Nor shall you lose what is your’s.
Death may come, but will not stay,
Your threads of fate grow ever more.
So long as the sea and the sky remain blue,
This I will say, and my words remain true.

~Scott Lee

yep,loneliness does come a lot in my poems such as it comes a lot in my life... *sigh* ill try and find some more cheery ones(will be tough though)

loved yours.is that why ur scottie?;)

two on a row this time.

If someday you needed me I would always be there
And if you felt all alone I'd be the one wo would care
Every moment I talk to you just gets better than the last
If you could let me love you I would kiss away your past

There's nothing I can do and nothing I can say
How can I make you notice me if we're so far away?
When you're afraid and crying, tearing up inside
My voice will bring the reason to help restore your pride

Now I act like a stranger, looks like I'm sombody else
I just need you to help me recognise myself
Whatever you're thinking, don't you see I always know?
Can anybody else do that? But you still don't love me though


Loving you is what makes my life worth living
Cuz without you nothing would make sense to me
Without your eyes I wouldn't see
Without your smile I wouldn't be
Who I am, cuz you're the reason why I keep smiling

If there was no tomorrow I wouldn't feel a thing
Because you kissed all my sorrow away
If there was no tomorrow it would be okay
Because I'm proud to say
I was loved by you one day

I was so happy when you were here with me
It was all so perfect I thought I was dreaming
You brought completeness to my life
When things were wrong you made them right
And that's why I know I'm ready for whatever fate brings to me

Loved the second one, it's a beautiful way of expressing yourself.

My Mistress’ Eyes

Her eyes, they burn not with fire,
Red like roses, her lips are not.
Her figure leaves much for desire,
Her hair may grow, wither and rot.
I see many flowers, red and white,
Yet in her cheeks, I see none.
My heart is wrong, my nose is right,
Her breath makes even statues run.
Her voice I hear, but beauty unseen,
Better a sound, does Music make.
A heavenly being, I may dream,
But at her face, I am awake.
And yet to her, my heart will follow,
And her heart to mine, our love is not hollow.

~Scott Lee

Hmm...This is a great one too.U know what?I can tell u put a little bit of this poet's style into ur own stuff,right?Such a great style,amazing,really...Great use of words mixed together with colours,lovely...

so glad u like them... -_-

tiny one now...

Close my eyes and I'll be able to see you
Cover up my ears and I'll be able to listen to you
Even with no feet I'd be able to reach you
Even with no mouth I'd be able to call for you

hmm.this one could use a little bit of...continuation(does this word exist?)...u know what i mean?too thick.will work on it.

In case you haven't realised, I am Scott Lee. Haven't you been reading my profile? :P

i had a feeling u were.but since ur real name is david,i thought u had "adopted" ur favourite poet's name or something...u know?sorry about that.feel mostly embarrassed... -_- really really sorry.and in that case,ur even greater than i thought,i mean like WOW!okay.ill shut up.can tell u hate compliments,or else u would hav read my message...*wink*

I look at the endless sky waiting to see the same star you are seeing
I look for the travelers that come from everywhere
So as to find someone who has smelled your perfume
I face the winds waiting for them to bring me a message from you
I travel through all the ways hoping to hear a song about you
And I look the people I find to try and discover in their faces a trace of your beauty

i like this.and this is my fav lyrics at the time.

Robbie Williams
Come Undone
So unimpressed but so in awe
Such a saint but such a whore
So self aware, so full of shit
So indecisive, so adamant
I'm contemplating thinking about thinking
It's so frustrated just get another drink in
Watch me come undone

They're selling razor blades and mirrors in the street
Pray that when I'm coming down you'll be asleep
If I ever hurt you your revenge will be so sweet
Because I'm scum and I'm your son
I come undone
I come undone

So rock and roll, so corporate suit
So damn ugly, so damn cute
So well trained, so animal
So need your love, so fuck you all
I'm not scared of dying, I just don't want to
If I stopped lying, I'd just disappoint you
I come undone

So write another ballad
Mix it on a Wednesday
Sell it on a Thursday
It's a love song
Do another interview
Sign a bunch of lies
Tell about celebrities that I despise
And sign love songs
We sing love songs
So sincere
So sincere

They're selling razor blades and mirrors in the street
Pray that when I'm coming down you'll be asleep
If I ever hurt your revenge will be so sweet
Because I'm scum and I'm your son
I've come undone
I've come undone
I've come undone
I've come undone
I am scum
Love your son

You've gotta love my sad song, my love song
My sad song, my love song
My sad song, my love song

LoL, fair enough. Those who want to know Scott Lee already do, and you can't really argue that, can you? ;)

Not written by me, but a good song that reflects my own words:
---

I Am the Wind
Language: English

Just like the wind,
I've always been
Drifting high up in the sky that never ends
Through thick and thin,
I always win
'Cause I would fight both life and death to save a friend

I face my destiny every day I live
And the best in me is all I have to give

Just like the sun (Just like the sun)
When my day's done
Sometimes I don't like the person I've become
Is the enemy within a thousand men?
Should I walk the path if my world's so dead ahead?

Is someone testing me every day I live?
Well, the best in me is all I have to give

I can pretend (I can pretend)
I am the wind (I am the wind)
And I don't know if I will pass this way again
All things must end
Goodbye, my friend
Think of me when you see the sun or feel the wind

I am the wind,
I am the sun
And one day we'll all be one

I am the wind,
I am the sun
And one day we'll all be one

*INSTRUMENTAL SOLO*

I am the wind,
I am the sun
And one day we'll all be one

I am the wind,
I am the sun
One day we'll all be one

(Repeat to end)
---

Great song. Not so sure if ur right back there. So u consider that i know u? ;)

This song really does reflect on my feelings.

COLDPLAY
Clocks
Lights go out and I can't be saved,
Tides that I tried to swim against,
You've put me down upon my knees,
Oh I beg, I beg and plead (singing),
Come out of things unsaid, shoot an apple of my head (and a),
Trouble that can't be named, tigers waiting to be tamed (singing),

You are, you are

Confusion never stops, closing walls and ticking clocks (gonna),
Come back and take you home, I could not stop, that you now know (singing),
Come out upon my seas, curse missed opportunities (am I),
A part of the cure, or am I part of the disease (singing)

You are (x6)

And nothing else compares,
Oh no nothing else compares,
And nothing else compares
You are (continues in background),
Home, home, where I wanted to go

Oh, and for those who haven't read it:

Wanderer of the Wind
By Scott Lee

One who is neither low nor great
Shall not control his threads of fate.
None stand forth to share his pain,
None will bring him from the rain.
But the wind will deprive him of hate.

No mask shall he wear,
No dream will he share,
Ambition for others, he will wrought,
But for himself, he will save naught.
The wind will take him there.

By his will alone, many will thrive,
By many, he will stay alive.
But none will ever stand by him,
And he will ask not of their whim.
The wind will bear his pride.

His hand will fulfil many a deed,
Of which they will be of great need.
But none will ever give him thanks
None will take him in their ranks.
But the wind will take no heed.

His name means naught; his face is not fair,
But they will hide his despair.
He will not break the hearts of friends
To satisfy his own dark ends.
The wind desires not to tear.

He fears not life; he fears not death.
In him no feeling will be left.
No heart to feel the warmth of love
No freedom from the sky above.
The wind will take his breath.

But the road goes ever on and on,
Though he may tread the path alone.
His silent steps, none can trace
But emotion now fills his face.
The wind will take him home.
---

My favourite... :) U hvent answered me yet.. U hav that on u,u dodge subjects... ;) j/k

Luv that part where u say But the road goes ever on and on", ir reminds me of Gandalf... remember? "The road goes ever on and on, down from the door where it began,now far ahead the road has gone down from the door where it began..."

:)

Indeed, I had that in mind when writing that line. If you were a good LotR spotter, you would also have noticed in Riding Out the Storm:

"Where now is the heart that was broken?
Where is the soul that is gone?
Like the wind in the trees that have spoken..."

They're loosely based off Theoden's lines in The Two Towers, especially the movie version:

"Where are the horse and the rider?
Where is the horn that was blowing?
They have passed like rain on the mountains, like wind in the meadow.
The days have gone down in the west, behind the hills, into the shadow."

The actual book-quote is longer, but it had a better effect in the movie. Another rhyming couplet of mine is also based on the above quote, but I won't spoil it until I get the poem back in print.

Yeah,i did notice it... Im a real LotR fanatic,u know?:) i know FOTR almost by heart... the movie,i mean...the TTT movie isnt out yet here... :( wish it was... but u did a great job ther with the poems...and with the dodging the subject also... ;) *wink*

I'm more of a purist, one of the people who disregard the movies as true LotR, but I still enjoy them as a visual representation of the works of Tolkien.

I agree,even though i feel a little disappointed when some important aspects of his work are forgotten in the motion picutre.very scared of what might happen in the third flick.hope they dont cut too much,since it is my favourite book.

The Scouring of the Shire is going to be cut out, for sure.

Anyway, back on topic...

Not lyrics nor poems now... Just some sentences i find interesting... Sorry if u dont get them outta the context...

Seems, madam! nay it is, I know not 'seems'.
'Tis not alone my inky cloak, good mother,
Nor customary suits of solemn black,
Nor windy suspiration of forced breath,
No, nor the fruitful river in the eye,
Nor the dejected haviour of the visage,
Together with all forms, modes, shapes of grief,
That can denote me truly. These indeed seem,
For they are actions that a man might play,
But I have that within which passes show,
These but the trappings and the suits of woe.
Hamlet

Great poems you guys!!
Seriously very impressed here.

Im not so much a poet - But a creative writer. I started a story last night for an english SAC coming up soon and this is the beginning of it. Tell me what you think. I love critiscisim!! :P

**ignore grammer and spelling**

He sits there and does nothing but stare. he is numb all over but the pain of his broken heart seems to do nothing but take over. her photo rests in his lap and whilst he continues to stare, the photo becomes nothing but a mass blur. it doesn't bother him. he can still make out her face, her smile and the twinkle in her eye. it's not until the tears well up in his eyes that her angelic like image
starts to fade. blinking furiously he tries to remember, but it doesn’t matter, the more he blinks away the tears, the more she starts to fade. it is at that moment that he has forgotten, forgotten her smile, and that twinkle in her eye. it is at that moment that the photo slips from his frail hand and floats silently to the ground. and he soon follows, slipping off the couch - ever so slowly.
his old hands, as delicate as paper pick the photo back up, he is shaking now and it cant be controlled, clutching the photo close to his heart he lets out a cry. it echo’s through out the house that they once shared. he is all alone and before he knows it, he has cried himself to sleep.

OMG,i REALLY luved it!So dramatic and passionate... :) i luved it,it looks so cool...go ahead and write more,then keep us posted of the ending of this story!;)

^ What she said.

Very well written, good imagery used and very emotive.

Speaking of SACs, hopefully I'll be getting my poems back from my last SAC tomorrow, if not then Thursday. I'll get them in print ASAP.

Hmm.*holding-my-chin* wonder who SACs are.can u explein it to me?see,im but a stupid girly who knows nuttin bout this kinda stuff,yaknowhamsayin? ;) *wink*

Basically they are a load of BS :D lol

I seem to be good at it ^_^

Oh,we dont hav that over here.Luckily i guess... :) but i do luv to write,so maybe its not that lucky...*sigh*so,wassup?i hav no other english poems on this pc to post,and all my fav poems and lyrics are on my other pc,so...nothing taht interesting to post...:( sorry bout that.

I too ..... When I am in the mood. :blink:

Okay,so been checking up my fav lyrics,will post some here...

this is one of my favs...its by Evanescence,its my fav song of the album Fallen..if u cango and listen to it,its amazing!

MY IMMORTAL
I'm so tired of being here, supressed by all my childish fears
And if you have to leave, I wish that you would just leave
Cuz your presence still lingers here and it won't leave me alone
These wounds won't seem to heal, this pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase

When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I've held your hand through all of these years
But you still have all of me

You used to captivate me by your resonating light
But now I'm bound by the life you left behind
Your face, it haunts my once pleasant dreams
Your voice, it chased away all the sanity in me
These wounds won't seem to heal, this pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase

When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I've held your hand through all of these years
But you still have all of me

I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
And though you're still with me I've been alone all along

When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I've held your hand through all of these years
But you still have all of me

Unfortunately, I'm getting my poems back next week, so I guess it's another dry spell. Ho hum <_<

Have a feeling you will like this one, Scott. One of my favourite songs at the moment. It's from a great Portuguese guy called David (hehe) Fonseca. He's awesome! Just check out the lyrics:

Someone That Cannot Love
You lodge your heart
You wake up with tears and stars in your eyes
You gave it all to someone that cannot love you back
Your days are passed
With wishes and hopes for the love that you've got
You wasted it all to someone that cannot love you back

Someone that cannot love, love
Ain't this enough?
You push yourself down
You try to take comfort in words, but words
They cannot love
Don't waste them like that
'cause they'll bruise you more

You secretly made
Castles of sand that you hide in the shame
But you cannot hold tides that break down
And you're building them all over again

You talk all this words
You make conversations that cannot be heard
How long until you notice that
No one is answering back?

Someone that cannot love, love
Ain't this enough?
You push yourself down
You try to take comfort in words, but words
They cannot love
Don't waste them like that
'cause they'll bruise you more

Love, love
Ain't this enough?
You're pushing around
You try to take comfort in words, but words
They cannot love
Don't waste them like that
'cause they'll bruise you more

Someone that cannot love

Someone that cannot love

Someone that cannot love, love
Ain't this enough?
You push yourself down
You try to take comfort in words, but words
They cannot love

Don't waste them like that
'cause they'll bruise you more

Love, love
Ain't this enough?
Pushing around
To find little comfort in words, but words
They cannot love
Don't waste them like that
'cause they'll bruise you more

Well they'll bruise you more

Words, they'll hurt you more

Words they'll hurt you more

Yes, they'll hurt you

Someone that cannot love

Someone that cannot love

Beautiful!

It is,isn't it? :) Hey, at the begging it's not lodge your heart, it's locked up your heart. Stupid website.


Nope,it really is lodge. Been listening carefully to the song. Stupid website again.


Another amazig lyric, by Sting, one of my favourite artists of all times:

Until
If I caught the world in a bottle and everything was still beneath the moon
Without your love, would it shine for me?
If I was smart as Aristotle and understood the rings around the moon
What would it all matter if you love me?

Here in your arms, where the world is impossibly still
With a million dreams to fulfill
And a matter of moments until the dancing ends
Here in your arms, when everything seems to be clear
Not a solitary thing would I fear
Except when this moment comes near the dancing's end

If I caught the world in an hourglass
Saddled up the moon so we could ride
Until the stars grew dim, until…

One day you’ll meet a stranger
And all the noise is silenced in the room
You’ll feel that you're close to some mystery
In the moonlight and everything shatters
You feel as if you’ve known her all your life
The world’s oldest lesson in history

Here in your arms where the world is impossibly still
With a million dreams to fulfil
And a matter of moments until the dancing ends
Here in your arms when everything seems to be clear
Not a solitary thing do I fear
Except when this moment comes near the dancing’s end

Oh, if I caught the world in an hourglass
Saddled up the moon and we would ride
Until the stars grew dim
Until the time that time stands still, Until…

Looks like another delay in the correction process, so I won't be getting my poems back for a while. That means you have to make do with my signatures ^_^

In the meantime, just something I wrote in class (took me 5 minutes 0.o)

Lady MacBeth, Harbinger of Blood

The raven cries, the heavens lie,
He will not live past this night.
Come, Duncan, you will die,
May darkness hide me from the light.

Come, spirits, take away
That which makes me weak.
Guide my hand onto its way,
And give me what I seek.

I am no lady who sits by a loom,
Nor one who runs from rain or mud.
I will take them to their tomb,
For I will cleave both flesh and blood.

Let me feel neither pain nor sore,
Lest I cry “Never more.”

~Scott Lee

MICHELLE BRANCH
Everywhere
Turn it inside out so I can see the part of you that's drifting over me
And when I wake you're never there, but when I sleep you're everywhere, you're everywhere
Just tell me how I got this far, just tell me why you're here and who you are
Cuz everytime I look you're never there, but everytime I sleep you're always there

Cuz you're everywhere to me and when I close my eyes it's you I see
You're everything I know that makes me believe I'm not alone, I'm not alone

I recognise the way you make me feel, it's hard to think that you might not be real
I sense it now, the water's getting deep, I try to wash the pain away from me, away from me

Cuz you're everywhere to me and when I close my eyes it's you I see
You're everything I know that makes me believe I'm not alone, I'm not alone
I am not alone, whoa, oh, ooh, oh

And when I touch your hand, that's when I understand
The beauty that's within, it's now that we begin
You always light my way, there never comes a day
No matter where I go, I always feel you so

Cuz you're everywhere to me and when I close my eyes it's you I see
You're everything I know that makes me believe I'm not alone
Cuz you're evrywhere to me and when I catch my breath, it's you I breathe
You're everuthing I know that makes me believe I'm not alone, I'm not alone

You're in everyone I see
So, tell me, do you see me?

Wow, you guys!!! Those poems are amazing!!! They seriously brought tears to my eyes! I was going to post some of my poems, but I think I'm ashamed of them now :P
Geez, you guys, lol, I'm speechless, they are really incredible! And Alex! English is your second language, isn't it? heehee, really good...
Umm...well let's see what I've got..and don't make fun of me just cuz your's are better ;) I've got some LOTR ones... but those are on my site
But let's see.....

Love is a power
Greater than war.
It will conquer all,
And under its strength you will fall.
It appears every place
Often without even a face.
It strikes like a knife,
But remains for life.
You are never alone,
Though miles you have flown.
When cold go the hearts
They are never driven apart.
Together for eternity they remain
Since that day when you first came.

*coughs and hangs her head in shame* hehe, I translated that poem into my own language too, but I'll spare you from that ;)

Animal Freedom

Flee from the ire of society.
Flee from the wrath of technology.
Flee to the quiet meadows,
Where you can escape your woes.
Where no shots are fired,
Where you can rest if tired.
Run freely in the sun,
Without fearing a gun.
Defy the powers of dominion,
This is your world to live in.

War rarely causes good,
It destroys like you never thought it could.
Lakes and forests are depleted,
Their inhabitants berated.

War will never bring peace,
For it will never cease.
Uncounted lives have from this world gone
By the dark terrors of a gun.

Words are like water after thirst,
The bring good into even the cursed.
Use them right, never wrong,
And good will ensue like a calming song.

OK, I'm done for now ;)

*Hoooogs* Loved them all, thank you!!!

Heeey,why should you be ashamed of your poems,they're great too!! I have told you that before, havent I? :)

Gosh, I just woke up and I was sleeping on top of my hand so it's compeltely numb, so I'm typing with only one hand. Urgh.

Hey Scott, I got this lyric for you (if you're still in that mood you were yesterday...):

SILENCE4
To Give

You're asking again, I told you before
The beautiful smile hides the troubled soul
Sad faces influence so easily
I already have enough of that inside of me
So funny you're still around after all these years
Ran away so many times, always ended up here
Could not ask for a thing from you
All you gave me I afforded to loose

You see, it's all too sad for me
It's too hard for me to believe
It's too painful for me
It's so hard for me to give

Too scared to jump, too dumb to fly
What side is stronger on this double-faced mind?
I make lies all day to keep the pain away
God knows my sins are already too big to pay
Even the tears I forget the taste
Maybe I should try to lick them off your face
And though I do try the best that I can
You had to be me to understand that

It's all too sad for me
It's too hard for me to believe
It's too painful for me
It's so hard for me to give

Smile on, hang on

Thanks Alex ;) And whoops! I hadn't noticed last night that there was more than one page, LOL, so now I've read more, and Liz! That story was really good too. Yep, I'm more of a story writer myself, but I just like writing poems once in a while, when I'm inspired, lol, seems like you're always pretty inspired Scott :D
I have a story somewhere, Im still writing it, haven't in awhile unfortunately, lol, too busy making up the language to go with it ;)
But if you're interested, it's ehh...what is it? :P it's umm http://www.akinonyx.com/eowyn/jaxene.doc , I think o.O, hehe...I have the whole story planned out but studies have kept me back -_-.

But anyway, love the poems! Keep it up guys, and the songs too! They're great, loved the David Fonseca one ^.^

*Hoooogs*
Have a great day!

yeah,David Fonseca's the best... And those Silence4 lyrics are also from david Fonseca,its the name if his former band... :)

MacBeth’s Soliloquy

I see a dagger; handle first.
It is there, but not there at all.
Could it be, it reads my thirst?
And compels to what I can’t ignore?

Could it be, my mind is ill?
It is like the one I hold.
Yet there it is, I see it still,
Could my deeds be foretold?

What bloody business could it tell?
It leads me to destiny’s hand.
It’s darkness means not well,
I fear where I now stand.

Silent are my steps, with breath so cold,
At his very door, I have striven.
His sovereign face, an air of old,
The deed is done, by demons be driven.

Rest well from what will befall.
MacBeth will sleep no more.
