I GO from all earth can give riven	A
By fate's sternest mandate so so	B
A Queen in a fiery car driven	A
To meet her god lover I go	B
	-
That blissful reunion to hasten	A
Hie hie with the worm to my breast	C
And here let its fatal lips fasten	A
On here where a god's head would rest	C
	-
Here here let it suck and be suckled	C
On what hath this pallid cheek dyed	C
When on his fell weapon I've buckled	C
And frolic mad mimicked his stride	C
	-
That golden day's vanished yet clingeth	D
One hope to the fallen one nay	E
A lay in the murky cloud ringeth	D
And dances her heart at that lay	E
	-
'Even yet will she meet with his olden	A
Blink' rings that sweet music 'her love	F
Whose smile will make Hades more golden	A
Than Jove's gilded palace above	F
	-
'Even yet will she thrill with the glory	G
That stream from his looks as she'd thrill	H
And hear from his tongue the sweet story	G
Of what she once was and is still	H
	-
'A Queen is she not who o'er victors	I
A victor hath trodden while Kings	J
Would smile on her pr tors and lictors	J
And gift their attendants with rings	J
	-
'And so in the far future ages	J
Some poet will chant to the throng	K
And Rulers and Heroes and Sages	J
An echo return to the song	K
	-
'Then spirits Titanic shall wonder	L
At one who o'er nations would reign	M
As if the dread bolt of the thunder	L
Had danced in delight in her train	M
	-
'As if Jove himself had forbidden	A
All ill thro' her portals to tread	C
And here would on lightning have ridden	A
To save a small hair of her head	C
	-
'A god guarded women they'll hold her	L
A god illumed soul and aright	C
Ay where were the eyes could behold her	L
And not in her glory delight	C
	-
'Her graces a Pompey would dazzle	N
A C sar his faulchion would sheath	D
Their vassal to be and their vassal	N
Shall now be the victor king Death	D
	-
'Her body will perish but rarer	L
The spirit that gilds it will gleam	O
And to her own Marcus yet fairer	L
Whatever seemed fairest will seem	O
	-
'The sun soaring bird afire flashes	J
A wreck to the wonder bound earth	D
But up the next hour from its ashes	J
Again the sun scaler goes forth	D
	-
'A Ph nix the Ph nix succeedeth	D
So up from the dust doth she spring	P
And go in a lustre that feedeth	D
With rapture the eyes of her King	P
	-
'His star from his burnished throne yonder	L
He sees as he saw her of old	C
A far on the Cydnus a wonder	L
That turns the black Styx into gold	C
	-
'And hers he is still ' Thro' my anguish	Q
Thus rings that sweet voice in my ears	J
And not in her sorrows may languish	Q
The soul which such harmony hears	J
	-
That voice at its sound I'm uplifted	C
Nor feel as I've felt weak and worn	R
That voice at its music I'm gifted	C
With strength yet the foeman to scorn	R
	-
The Roman may giggle the Roman	A
May sound his brass timbrels in mirth	D
Shall he make a mock of the woman	A
Erewhile the delight of the earth	D
	-
Shall she to the seven hilled City	C
In triumph be hurried in deed	C
No no from their laughter or pity	C
Ah see by the viper she's freed	C
	-
Freed free is her spirit and given	A
Power 'longings immortal ' and oh	B
A Queen in a fiery car driven	A
To meet her god lover I go	B
