| Out of the dawning heavens that hear | B |
| Young wings and feet of the new year | C |
| Move through their twilight and shed round | D |
| Soft showers of sound | D |
| Soothing the season with sweet rain | E |
| If greeting come to make me fain | E |
| What is it I can send again | F |
| - | |

| I know not if the year shall send | G |
| Tidings to usward as a friend | G |
| And salutation and such things | H |
| Bear on his wings | H |
| As the soul turns and thirsts unto | I |
| With hungering eyes and lips that sue | I |
| For that sweet food which makes all new | I |
| - | |

| I know not if his light shall be | A |
| Darkness or else light verily | A |
| I know but that it will not part | J |
| Heart's faith from heart | J |
| Truth from the trust in truth nor hope | K |
| From sight of days unscaled that ope | K |
| Beyond one poor year's horoscope | K |

| That faith in love which love's self gives | L |
| O master of my spirit lives | L |
| Having in presence unremoved | J |
| Thine head beloved | J |
| The shadow of thee the semitone | I |
| Of thy voice heard at heart and known | I |
| The light of thee not set nor flown | I |
| - | |
| - | |
| - | |
| Seas lands and hours can these divide | J |
| Love from love's service side from side | J |
| Though no sound pass nor breath be heard | J |
| Of one good word | J |
| To send back words of trust to thee | A |
| Were to send wings to love when he | A |
| With his own strong wings covers me | A |
| - | |
| - | |
| - | |
| Who shall teach singing to the spheres | M |
| Or motion to the flight of years | M |
| Let soul with soul keep hand in hand | J |
| And understand | J |
| As in one same abiding place | N |
| We keep one watch for one same face | N |
| To rise in some short sacred space | N |
| - | |
| - | |
| - | |
| And all space midway is but nought | J |
| To keep true heart from faithful thought | J |
| As under twilight stars we wait | J |
| By Time's shut gate | J |
| Till the slow soundless hinges turn | I |
| And through the depth of years that yearn | I |
| The face of the Republic burn | I |
