Ho everyone that thirstethA
And hath the price to giveB
Come to the stolen watersC
Drink and your soul shall liveD

Come to the stolen watersC
And leap the guarded paleE
And pull the flower in seasonF
Before desire shall failE
-
It shall not last for everG
No more than earth and skiesH
But he that drinks in seasonF
Shall live before he diesH
-
June suns you cannot store themI
To warm the winter's coldJ
The lad that hopes for heavenF
Shall fill his mouth with moldJ
