text_original: A bell was I of Pagan lands Forged and welded in might and beauty, But captured by Christian chivalry, And set in a belfry by godly hands, With chrisms and benedictions three, For a fourfold consecrated duty: To summon to pray, to peal for the fray, To measure the hours, to moan for the dead; To moan for the dead, ah me! ah me!
