Which cast in later Grecian mouldC
Quintus CalaberD
Somewhat lazily handled of oldC

And on this white midwinter dayE
For have the far off hymns of MayE
All her melodiesF
All her harmonies echo'd awayE

To day before you turn againG
To thoughts that lift the soul of menG
Hear my cataract'sF
Downward thunder in hollow and glenG

Till led by dream and vague desireD
The woman gliding toward the pyreD
Find her warriorD
Stark and dark in his funeral fireD
