| No hope no change The clouds have shut us in | B |
| And through the cloud the sullen Sun strikes down | C |
| Full on the bosom of the tortured Town | C |
| Till Night falls heavy as remembered sin | B |
| That will not suffer sleep or thought of ease | D |
| And hour on hour the dry eyed Moon in spite | E |
| Glares through the haze and mocks with watery light | E |
| The torment of the uncomplaining trees | D |
| Far off the Thunder bellows her despair | F |
| To echoing Earth thrice parched The lightnings fly | G |
| In vain No help the heaped up clouds afford | H |
| But wearier weight of burdened burning air | F |
| What truce with Dawn Look from the aching sky | G |
| Day stalks a tyrant with a flaming sword | H |

| At dawn there was a murmur in the trees | D |
| A ripple on the tank and in the air | F |
| Presage of coming coolness everywhere | F |
| A voice of prophecy upon the breeze | D |
| Up leapt the Sun and smote the dust to gold | J |
| And strove to parch anew the heedless land | K |
| All impotently as a King grown old | J |
| Wars for the Empire crumbling 'neath his hand | K |
| One after one the lotos petals fell | L |
| Beneath the onslaught of the rebel year | M |
| In mutiny against a furious sky | G |
| And far off Winter whispered quot It is well | L |
| quot Hot Summer dies Behold your help is near | M |
| quot For when men's need is sorest then come I quot | K |
