Hymn to the DopeA
-
-
Goddess of the murmuring courtsB
Nicotine my NicotineC
Houri of the mystic sportsB
trailing robed in gabardineC
Gliding where the breath hath glidedD
Hidden sylph of filmy veilsE
Truth behind the dream is veil dF
E'en as thou art smiling ever ever glidingG
Wraith of wraiths dim lights dividingG
Purple grey and shadow greenC
Goddess Dream grace NicotineC
-
Goddess of the shadow's lightsH
Nicotine my NicotineC
Some would set old Earth to rightsH
Thou I none such weenC
Veils of shade our dream dividingG
Houris dancing interglidingG
Wraith of wraiths and dream of facesI
Silent guardian of the old unhallowed placesI
Utter symbol of all old sweet druidingsI
Mem'ry of witched wold and greenC
Nicotine my NicotineC
-
Neath the shadows of thy weavingG
Dreams that need no undeceivingG
Loves that longer hold me notJ
Dreams I dream not any moreK
Fragrance of old sweet forgotten placesI
Smiles of dream lit flit by facesI
All as perfume Arab sweetL
Deck the high road to thy feetL
-
As were Godiva's coming fatedD
And all the April's blush belatedD
Were lain before her carpetingG
The stones of Coventry with springG
So thou my mist enwreath d queenC
Nicotine white NicotineC
Riding engloried in they hairM
Mak'st by road of our dreamsI
Thy thorough fareM
