-
It was a quiet wayB
He asked if I was hisC
I made no answer of the TongueD
But answer of the EyesE
And then He bore me onF
Before this mortal noiseG
With swiftness as of ChariotsH
And distance as of WheelsI
This World did drop awayB
As Acres from the feetJ
Of one that leaneth from BalloonK
Upon an Ether streetJ
The Gulf behind was notL
The Continents were newM
Eternity it was beforeN
Eternity was dueM
No Seasons were to usO
It was not Night nor MornP
But Sunrise stopped upon the placeQ
And fastened it in DawnR
