Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCD EFGFEH| The Kings come riding back from the Crusade | A |
| The purple Kings and all their mounted men | B |
| They fill the street with clamorous cavalcade | A |
| The Kings have broken down the Saracen | B |
| Singing a great song of the eastern wars | C |
| In crimson ships across the sea they came | D |
| With crimson sails and diamonded dark oars | C |
| That made the Mediterranean flash with flame | D |

| And reading how in that far month the ranks | E |
| Formed on the edge of the desert armoured all | F |
| I wish to God that I had been with them | G |
| When the first Norman leapt upon the wall | F |
| And Godfrey led the foremost of the Franks | E |
| And young Lord Raymond stormed Jerusalem | H |
