Dear Master in our classic townA
You loved by all the younger gownA
There at BalliolB
Lay your Plato for one minute downA

And read a Grecian tale re toldC
Which cast in later Grecian mouldC
Quintus CalaberD
Somewhat lazily handled of oldC
-
III-
-
And on this white midwinter dayE
For have the far off hymns of MayE
All her melodiesF
All her harmonies echo'd awayE
-
IV-
-
To day before you turn againG
To thoughts that lift the soul of menG
Hear my cataract'sF
Downward thunder in hollow and glenG
-
V-
-
Till led by dream and vague desireD
The woman gliding toward the pyreD
Find her warriorD
Stark and dark in his funeral fireD
