Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEFE GHIHJAKA LMDMNKOL APQPRASA

We go no more to Calverly'sA
For there the lights are few and lowB
And who are there to see by themC
Or what they see we do not knowB
Poor strangers of another tongueD
May now creep in from anywhereE
And we forgotten be no moreF
Than twilight on a ruin thereE
-
We two the remnant All the restG
Are cold and quiet You nor IH
Nor fiddle now nor flagon lidI
May ring them back from where they lieH
No fame delays oblivionJ
For them but something yet survivesA
A record written fair could weK
But read the book of scattered livesA
-
There'll be a page for LeffingwellL
And one for Lingard the Moon calfM
And who knows what for ClaveringD
Who died because he couldn't laughM
Who knows or cares No sign is hereN
No face no voice no memoryK
No Lingard with his eerie joyO
No Clavering no CalverlyL
-
We cannot have them here with usA
To say where their light lives are goneP
Or if they be of other stuffQ
Than are the moons of IlionP
So be their place of one estateR
With ashes echoes and old warsA
Or ever we be of the nightS
Or we be lost among the starsA
