Roll forth my song like the rushing river	A
That sweeps along to the mighty sea	B
God will inspire me while I deliver	A
My soul of thee	B
	-
Tell thou the world when my bones lie whitening	C
Amid the last homes of youth and eld	D
That once there was one whose veins ran lightning	C
No eye beheld	D
	-
Tell how his boyhood was one drear night hour	A
How shone for him through his griefs and gloom	E
No star of all heaven sends to light our	A
Path to the tomb	E
	-
Roll on my song and to after ages	F
Tell how disdaining all earth can give	G
He would have taught men from wisdom's pages	F
The way to live	H
	-
And tell how trampled derided hated	D
And worn by weakness disease and wrong	I
He fled for shelter to God who mated	D
His soul with song	I
	-
With song which alway sublime or vapid	D
Flow'd like a rill in the morning beam	J
Perchance not deep but intense and rapid	D
A mountain stream	J
	-
Tell how this Nameless condemn'd for years long	I
To herd with demons from hell beneath	K
Saw things that made him with groans and tears long	I
For even death	L
	-
Go on to tell how with genius wasted	D
Betray'd in friendship befool'd in love	M
With spirit shipwreck'd and young hopes blasted	D
He still still strove	N
	-
Till spent with toil dreeing death for others	O
And some whose hands should have wrought for him	P
If children live not for sires and mothers	O
His mind grew dim	P
	-
And he fell far through that pit abysmal	Q
The gulf and grave of Maginn and Burns	R
And pawn'd his soul for the devil's dismal	Q
Stock of returns	R
	-
But yet redeem'd it in days of darkness	S
And shapes and signs of the final wrath	T
When death in hideous and ghastly starkness	U
Stood on his path	T
	-
And tell how now amid wreck and sorrow	V
And want and sickness and houseless nights	W
He bides in calmness the silent morrow	V
That no ray lights	W
	-
And lives he still then Yes Old and hoary	B
At thirty nine from despair and woe	V
He lives enduring what future story	B
Will never know	V
	-
Him grant a grave to ye pitying noble	Q
Deep in your bosoms there let him dwell	X
He too had tears for all souls in trouble	Q
Here and in hell	X
