A Tongue to tell Him I am trueB
Its fee to be of GoldC
Had Nature in Her monstrous HouseD
A single Ragged ChildE
-
To earn a Mine would runF
That Interdicted WayG
And tell Him Charge thee speak it plainH
That so far Truth is TrueB
-
And answer What I doB
Beginning with the DayG
That Night begunF
Nay Midnight 'twasI
Since Midnight happened sayG
-
If once more Pardon BoyJ
The Magnitude thou mayG
Enlarge my Message If too vastK
Another Lad help theeL
-
Thy Pay in Diamonds beL
And His in solid GoldC
Say Rubies if He hesitateM
My Message must be toldC
-
Say last I said was ThisN
That when the Hills come downO
And hold no higher than the PlainH
My Bond have just begunF
-
And when the Heavens disbandP
And Deity concludeQ
Then look for me Be sure you sayG
Least Figure on the RoadR
