Sublime in age or with clear morning eyes | B |
Ever I seek thee tantalising Vision | A |
Which beckoning flies | B |

Ever I seek Thee O evasive Presence | C |
Which on the far horizon's utmost verge | D |
Like some wild star in luminous evanescence | C |
Shoots o'er the surge | D |

Ever I seek Thy features ever flying | E |
Which ne'er beheld I never can forget | F |
Lightning which flames through love and mimics dying | E |
In souls that set | F |

Ever I seek Thee through all clouds of error | G |
As when the moon behind earth's shadow slips | H |
She wears a momentary mask of terror | G |
In brief eclipse | H |

Ever I seek Thee passionately yearning | E |
Like altar fire on some forgotten fane | I |
My life flames up irrevocably burning | E |
And burnt in vain | I |
