The nearer camp fires lighted	A
The distant beacons bright	B
The horsemen on the skyline	C
Are closing in to night	B
My brothers Oh my brothers	D
Lie down and rest at last	E
The Years of Reparation	F
Have rushed upon us fast	E
	-
Oh ride and ride you riders	D
Who rode ere I was born	G
While blink and blink the star dust	H
That blinks before the morn	G
And glow and glow you camp fires	D
And flash you beacons bright	B
They re riding round the wronged ones	I
And riding round the right	B
	-
My brothers Oh my brothers	D
With dried and haggard eyes	J
In gaol for just blows stricken	F
In gaol for women s lies	J
Lie down and pace no longer	K
But bathe your eyes in tears	L
For Years of Retribution	F
That shall be seven years	M
	-
Their lovers and believers	D
Their sweethearts sisters wives	N
Their daughters sons and mothers	D
The true friends of their lives	O
Hold up your heads and firmly	P
Look down the Crooked Seers	Q
For Years of Justifying	R
That shall be seven years	M
	-
Inventors artists poets	S
Exiled or driven mad	T
Sweated sneered at slandered	U
And driven to the bad	T
Take up the tools of genius	V
Freed from all paltry fears	M
For Seasons of Repayment	W
That shall be seven years	M
	-
Oh ride and ride you riders	D
That rode when I was born	G
Against a ghastly skyline	C
Beneath a storm cloud torn	G
I watched you through my childhood	X
I saw the whip and spur	K
No spy s glass could detect you	Y
But I knew what you were	K
	-
Oh ride and ride my riders	D
And flash my birth star bright	B
The youth I never dreamed of	Z
Is with me here to night	B
The hearing strength and vision	F
The will to do and dare	A2
The love I ever longed for	B2
Is round me everywhere	A2
	-
Dead Friendship ah Dead Friendship	C2
Rise up and breathe again	D2
I ride my rounds re honoured	B
Along the ranks of men	D2
My old mates Oh my old mates	E2
Who fought the cur and brute	B
My horsemen from the skyline	C
Are drawn up to salute	B
	-
My Dead Love Oh my Dead Love	Z
Who died for love of me	P
Who sleeps amongst the poets	S
Since five years sobbed the sea	P
Since five years blackened honour	A2
And cramped and warped the pen	D2
There s glory to your spirit	B
The laurel leafs again	D2
	-
My enemies the causeless	P
Of vicious mysteries	P
Or mad with jealous madness	P
Or for the crawler s fees	P
Fear ye my Cypher Seven	F
For seven years to run	F
The number set by Heaven	F
When Heaven s will is done	F
	-
So ride and ride my riders	P
And ride for men and me	P
Ride close round madness yonder	A2
And blackest treachery	P
Oh ride round little children	F
That sleep through all and smile	F2
At daybreak I will lead you	Y
Now I must rest awhile	F2
