Rhyme Scheme: ABAC ADED FGAG AHAH IJKJ ADLD AMAM

In the dim countiesA
we take the long calmB
Lilting no hazinessA
sequel or psalmC
-
The little street wenchesA
The holy and cleanD
Live as good neighbours liveE
under the greenD
-
Malice of sunbeam orF
menace of moonG
Piping shall leave usA
no taste of a tuneG
-
In the dim countiesA
the eyelids are dumbH
To the lean citizensA
Love cannot comeH
-
Love in the yellowingI
Love at the turnJ
Love o' the cooing lipK
how should he burnJ
-
The little street wenchesA
the callous uncleanD
Could they but tell us whatL
all the gods meanD
-
Love cannot sabre usA
blood cannot flowM
In the dim countiesA
that wait us belowM
