To Joseph Mazzini	A
	-
	-
Prim dicte mihi summ dicende Camen	A
	-
	-
The shadows fallen of years are nine	A
Since heaven grew seven times more divine	A
With thy soul entering and the dearth	B
Of souls on earth	B
Grew sevenfold sadder wanting One	A
Whose light of life quenched here and done	A
Burns there eternal as the sun	A
	-
	-
Beyond all word beyond all deed	C
Beyond all thought beloved what need	C
Has death or love that speech should be	D
Hast thou of me	D
I had no word no prayer no cry	E
To praise or hail or mourn thee by	E
As when thou too wast man as I	E
	-
	-
Nay never nor as any born	A
Save one whose name priests turn to scorn	A
Who haply though we know not now	A
Was man as thou	A
A wanderer branded with men's blame	F
Loved past man's utterance yea the same	F
Perchance and as his name thy name	F
	-
	-
Thou wast as very Christ not he	D
Degraded into Deity	D
And priest polluted by such prayer	G
As poisons air	G
Tongue worship of the tongue that slays	H
False faith and parricidal praise	H
But the man crowned with suffering days	H
	-
	-
God only being of all mankind	I
Most manlike of most equal mind	I
And heart most perfect more than can	A
Be heart of man	A
Once in ten ages born to be	D
As haply Christ was and as we	D
Knew surely seeing and worshipped thee	D
	-
	-
To know thee this at least was ours	H
God clothed upon with human hours	H
O face beloved O spirit adored	J
Saviour and lord	J
That wast not only for thine own	A
Redeemer not of these alone	A
But all to whom thy word was known	A
	-
	-
Ten years have wrought their will with me	D
Since last my words took wing for thee	D
Who then wast even as now above	K
Me and my love	K
As then thou knewest not scorn so now	A
With that beloved benignant brow	A
Take these of him whose light wast thou	A
