Angered Reason walked with me	A
A street so squat unshapen bald	B
So blear windowed and grimy walled	B
So dismal doored it seemed to be	A
	-
The abortion of a mind that had	C
Nor wit nor will to make but left	D
Its impotence in image reft	D
Of even the means of seeming glad	D
	-
And there like never ripened fruit	D
Unsunned and starved were human lives	E
In joyless neighbour dreading hives	F
Of care with half their senses mute	D
	-
It pressed on me that patient street	D
It hurt me that it housed my kind	D
It was so abject and resigned	D
And so deformed I hated it	D
	-
The stars that flowered above grew bright	D
The evening filled with wondrous blue	G
The lampshine glistened in the dew	G
The gliding trams were ships of light	D
	-
And through my rebel heart there ran	H
The want of things not bought or sold	D
The spirit free to make and mould	D
The naked glory of a man	H
	-
And fevered I began to build	D
A city like the body worth	I
The natural happiness of earth	I
And with this folk its streets I filled	D
	-
No more from widest joy exiled	D
Nor helpless in a caging net	D
Suddenly by a lamp I met	D
A woman carrying her child	D
	-
I stopped the building of my dream	J
For there was all the future's book	K
Written in that enfolding look	K
And there the never ending theme	J
	-
And there the builder of the strong	L
City of men's desire but there	M
Also the shadow of the snare	M
And the corruption and the wrong	L
	-
Ah now I doubted of my thought	D
That could so easily perfect	D
Wishes in dream and raise the wrecked	D
And make all noble as it wrought	D
	-
Those mother's eyes absorbed unknown	N
Had made my vision wan and thin	O
There was a harder world to win	O
From flesh and blood than wood and stone	N
	-
O now of those life's prisoners none	P
Soiled soured or hardened but had speech	Q
To me of secret wonder each	Q
Was once so wonderful to one	P
	-
Yet she that bears the pang and hears	R
The first young cry and stills its want	D
And can with her vast hope enchant	D
The promise of betraying years	S
	-
Who should have beauty's best but she	A
To whom a son is given That street	D
Of life's denial and defeat	D
Stood in my mind accusing me	A
