Silent his enchanted horn | F |

Then you came from South and North | K |
From Tugela from the Tweed | J |

King Romance with wand of gold | J |
Sways the realms he ruled of yore | Q |

Waves his sceptre o'er the isles | R |
Claims the pirates' treasuries | S |
Through innumerable miles | R |
Of the siren haunted seas | S |

Elfin folk of coast and cave | T |
Laud him in the woven dance | U |
All the tribes of wold and wave | T |
Bow the knee to King Romance | U |
Wand'ring voices Chaucer knew | A |
On the mountain and the main | O |
Cry the haunted forest through | A |
KING ROMANCE HAS COME AGAIN | P |
