And Mourners to and fro | B |
Kept treading treading till it seemed | C |
That Sense was breaking through | D |

And when they all were seated | E |
A Service like a Drum | F |
Kept beating beating till I thought | G |

And creak across my Soul | I |
With those same Boots of Lead again | J |

As all the Heavens were a Bell | K |
And Being but an Ear | L |
And I and Silence some strange Race | M |
Wrecked solitary here | L |

And then a Plank in Reason broke | N |
And I dropped down and down | O |
And hit a World at every plunge | P |
And Finished knowing then | J |
