| My soul would write | A |
| Tales that were heard of old | B |
| Of perilous things and bold | B |
| Kings as young lions for pride | C |
| Lost cities where they died | C |
| Last in the gate the cry | D |
| That told some Eastern throng | E |
| A prophet was gone by | D |
| The song of swords the song | E |
| Of beautiful fierce lords | F |
| Gone down among the swords | F |
| The traffick and the breath | G |
| Of nations spilled in death | G |
| The glory and the gleam | H |
| Of a whole age | I |

| Yet thanks if yet You give | J |
| The crumbs by which I live | K |
| Blown shreds of beauty broken | L |
| Words half unspoken | L |
| So faint so faltering | M |
| They may not truly show | N |
| The blue on a crow's wing | M |
| The berry of a brier | O |
| Cupped in new snow | N |
| As though the snow lit fire | O |
