| A kingdom of enchantment by the shore | B |

| Behold the sky with early stars ashine | C |
| A jewelled flagon brimmed with purple wine | C |
| - | |
| Like a dumb poet's soul the troubled sea | D |
| Moans of its joy and sorrow wordlessly | E |
| - | |
| But the glad winds that utter naught of grief | F |
| Make silver speech by headland and by reef | F |

| Lo here we find a beckoning solitude | I |
| A winsome presence to be mutely wooed | I |

| Which being won will teach us fabled lore | B |
| The old old gramarye of the sibyl shore | B |
| - | |
| Oh what a poignant rapture thus to be | D |
| Lingering at twilight by the ancient sea | D |
