They rode right out of the morning sun	A
A glimmering glittering cavalcade	B
Of knights and ladies and every one	A
In princely sheen arrayed	B
And the king of them all O he rode ahead	C
With a helmet of gold and a plume of red	C
That spurted about in the breeze and bled	C
In the bloom of the everglade	C
	-
And they rode high over the dewy lawn	D
With brave glad banners of every hue	E
That rolled in ripples as they rode on	F
In splendor two and two	E
And the tinkling links of the golden reins	G
Of the steeds they rode rang such refrains	G
As the castanets in a dream of Spain's	G
Intensest gold and blue	E
	-
And they rode and rode and the steeds they neighed	C
And pranced and the sun on their glossy hides	H
Flickered and lightened and glanced and played	C
Like the moon on rippling tides	H
	-
And their manes were silken and thick and strong	I
And their tails were flossy and fetlock long	I
And jostled in time to the teeming throng	I
And their knightly song besides	H
	-
Clank of scabbard and jingle of spur	J
And the fluttering sash of the queen went wild	C
In the wind and the proud king glanced at her	J
As one at a wilful child	C
And as knight and lady away they flew	E
And the banners flapped and the falcon too	E
And the lances flashed and the bugle blew	E
He kissed his hand and smiled	C
	-
And then like a slanting sunlit shower	J
The pageant glittered across the plain	K
And the turf spun back and the wildweed flower	J
Was only a crimson stain	K
And a dreamer's eyes they are downward cast	C
As he blends these words with the wailing blast	C
'It is the King of the Year rides past '	-
And Autumn is here again	L
