Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDBEB FGHGIJKJWe meet and part now over all the world | A |
we the lost company | B |
take hands together in the night forget | C |
the night in our brief happiness silently | B |
We who sought many things throw all away | D |
for this one thing one only | B |
remembering that in the narrow grave | E |
we shall be lonely | B |

Death marshalls up his armies round us now | F |
Their footsteps crowd too near | G |
Lock your warm hand above the chilling heart | H |
and for a time I live without my fear | G |
Grope in the night to find me and embrace | I |
for the dark preludes of the drums begin | J |
and round us round the company of lovers | K |
death draws his cordons in | J |
