Thou trumpet made for Shakespeare's lips to blowA
-
-
No more for thee the music and the lightsB
Thy magic may no more win smile nor frownC
For thee dear interpreter of dreamsD
The curtain hath rung downC
-
No more the sea of faces turned to thineE
Swayed by impassioned word and breathless pauseF
No more the triumph of thine art no moreG
The thunder of applauseF
-
No more for thee the maddening mystic bellsH
The haunting horror and the falling snowA
No more of Shylock's fury and no moreG
The Prince of Denmark's woeA
-
Not once again the fret of heart and soulI
The loneliness and passion of King LearJ
No more bewilderment and broken wordsK
Of wild despair and fearJ
-
And never wilt thou conjure from the pastL
The dread and bitter field of WaterlooM
Thy trembling hands will never pluck againN
Its roses or its rueM
-
Thou art no longer player to the courtO
No longer red robed cardinal or kingP
To day thou art thyself the Well BelovedQ
Bereft of crown and ringP
-
Thy feet have found the path that Shakespeare foundR
Life's lonely exit of such far renownC
For thee dear interpreter of dreamsD
The curtain hath rung downC
