Rhyme Scheme: ABBACDECFEGHHE'O monstrous dead unprofitable world | A |
That thou canst hear and hearing hold thy way | B |
A voice oracular hath peal'd to day | B |
To day a hero's banner is unfurl'd | A |
Hast thou no lip for welcome ' So I said | C |
Man after man the world smil'd and pass'd by | D |
A smile of wistful incredulity | E |
As though one spike of noise unto the dead | C |
Scornful and strange and sorrowful and full | F |
Of bitter knowledge Yet the Will is free | E |
Strong is the Soul and wise and beautiful | G |
The seeds of godlike power are in us still | H |
Gods are we Bards Saints Heroes if we will | H |
Dumb judges answer truth or mockery | E |
