| It is moonlight Alone in the silence | B |
| I ascend my stairs once more | C |
| While waves remote in a pale blue starlight | D |
| Crash on a white sand shore | C |
| It is moonlight The garden is silent | E |
| I stand in my room alone | F |
| Across my wall from the far off moon | G |
| A rain of fire is thrown | F |
| There are houses hanging above the stars | H |
| And stars hung under a sea | A |
| And a wind from the long blue vault of time | I |
| Waves my curtain for me | A |
| I wait in the dark once more | C |
| Swung between space and space | J |
| Before my mirror I lift my hands | K |
| And face my remembered face | J |
| Is it I who stand in a question here | L |
| Asking to know my name | M |
| It is I yet I know not whither I go | N |
| Nor why nor whence I came | M |
| It is I who awoke at dawn | O |
| And arose and descended the stair | P |
| Conceiving a god in the eye of the sun | Q |
| In a woman's hands and hair | P |
| It is I whose flesh is gray with the stones | R |
| I builded into a wall | S |
| With a mournful melody in my brain | T |
| Of a tune I cannot recall | S |
| There are roses to kiss and mouths to kiss | U |
| And the sharp pained shadow of death | V |
| I remember a rain drop on my cheek | W |
| A wind like a fragrant breath | V |
| And the star I laugh on tilts through heaven | Q |
| And the heavens are dark and steep | X |
| I will forget these things once more | C |
| In the silence of sleep | X |
