Alas I have lost my God	A
My beautiful God Apollo	B
Wherever his footsteps trod	A
My feet were wont to follow	B
	-
But Oh it fell out one day	C
My soul was so heavy with weeping	D
That I laid me down by the way	C
And he left me while I was sleeping	D
	-
And my soul awoke in the night	E
And I bowed my ear for his fluting	D
And I heard but the breath of the flight	E
Of wings and the night birds hooting	D
	-
And night drank all her cup	F
And I went to the shrine in the hollow	B
And the voice of my cry went up	F
' Apollo Apollo Apollo '	-
	-
But he never came to the gate	G
And the sun was hid in a mist	H
And there came one walking late	G
And I knew it was Christ	I
	-
He took my soul and bound it	J
With cords of iron wire	K
Seven times round He wound it	J
With the cords of my desire	K
	-
The cords of my desire	K
While my desire slept	L
Were seven bands of wire	K
To bind my soul that wept	L
	-
And He hid my soul at last	M
In a place of stones and ears	N
Where the hours like days went past	M
And the days went by like years	N
	-
And after many days	O
That which had slept awoke	D
And desire burnt in a blaze	O
And my soul went up in the smoke	D
	-
And we crept away from the place	P
And would not look behind	Q
And the angel that hides his face	P
Was crouched on the neck of the wind	Q
	-
And I went to the shrine in the hollow	B
Where the lutes and the flutes were playing	D
And cried ' I am come Apollo	B
Back to thy shrine from my straying '	-
	-
But he would have none of my soul	R
That was stained with blood and with tears	S
That had lain in the earth like a mole	R
In the place of great stones and fears	N
	-
And now I am lost in the mist	H
Of the things that can never be	T
For I will have none of Christ	I
And Apollo will none of me	T
