When
we
were
down
within
the
gloomy
well
,
beneath
the
Giant
?
s
feet
,
though
lower
far
,
and
I
still
gazing
at
its
lofty
wall
,
I
heard
one
say
to
me
:
"
Look
where
thou
walkest
!
and
see
that
with
thy
feet
thou
trample
not
the
heads
of
us
two
wretched
,
weary
!
"
Thereat
I
turned
around
,
and
saw
before
me
,
and
?
neath
my
feet
,
a
lake
which
,
being
frozen
,
seemed
to
be
made
of
glass
not
of
water
.
Thereafter
I
beheld
a
thousand
faces
made
doglike
by
the
cold
;
hence
frozen
ponds
cause
me
to
shudder
now
,
and
always
will
.
From
them
we
had
departed
now
,
when
two
I
saw
,
so
frozen
in
a
single
hole
,
that
one
man
?
s
head
served
as
the
other
?
s
cap
.
as
because
of
hunger
bread
is
eaten
,
even
so
the
upper
on
the
other
set
his
teeth
,
where
to
the
nape
the
brain
is
joined
.
Further
along
we
went
,
to
the
ice
roughly
enswathes
another
class
of
people
,
not
downward
turned
,
but
wholly
on
their
backs
.
Weeping
itself
allows
not
weeping
there
,
and
tears
,
which
find
a
barrier
in
their
,
turn
back
,
to
cause
their
suffering
to
increase
;
because
the
first
ones
form
a
solid
block
,
thus
like
crystal
visors
wholly
fill
the
hollow
cup
beneath
the
brow
.
And
though
,
as
in
a
callous
spot
,
because
of
cold
all
feeling
had
departed
from
my
face
,
it
seemed
to
me
that
now
I
felt
some
wind
;
