[Vide infra, line 816. The raven turns into a vulture a few lines further on. Compare—
"The scalps were in the wild dog's maw, The hair was tangled round his jaw: But close by the shore, on the edge of the gulf, There sat a vulture flapping a wolf."
Siege of Corinth, lines 471-474, Poetical Works, 1900, iv. 468.]
