Rhyme Scheme: ABBCDEFGHIJKLMN| Toward the last | A |
| The truth of others was untruth to me | B |

| Their reasons for death reasons with me for life | C |
| Their reasons for life reasons with me for death | D |
| I would have killed those they saved | E |
| And saved those they killed | F |

| Without continual clashes | K |
| The dust's for crawling heaven's for flying | L |
| Wherefore O soul whose wings are grown | M |
| Soar upward to the sun | N |
