Heart sick of his journey was the Wanderer	A
Footsore and parched was he	B
And a Witch who long had lurked by the wayside	C
Looked out of sorcery	B
	-
Lift up your eyes you lonely Wanderer	A
She peeped from her casement small	D
Here's shelter and quiet to give you rest young man	E
And apples for thirst withal	D
	-
And he looked up out of his sad reverie	B
And saw all the woods in green	F
With birds that flitted feathered in the dappling	G
The jewel bright leaves between	F
	-
And he lifted up his face towards her lattice	H
And there alluring wise	I
Slanting through the silence of the long past	J
Dwelt the still green Witch's eyes	I
	-
And vaguely from the hiding place of memory	B
Voices seemed to cry	K
What is the darkness of one brief life time	L
To the deaths thou hast made us die	K
	-
Heed not the words of the Enchantress	I
Who would us still betray	M
And sad with the echo of their reproaches	I
Doubting he turned away	M
	-
I may not shelter 'neath your roof lady	B
Nor in this wood's green shadow seek repose	I
Nor will your apples quench the thirst	N
A homesick wanderer knows	I
	-
'Homesick forsooth ' she softly mocked him	O
And the beauty in her face	I
Made in the sunshine pale and trembling	G
A stillness in that place	I
	-
And he sighed as if in fear the young Wanderer	A
Looking to left and to right	P
Where the endless narrow road swept onward	Q
In the distance lost to sight	P
	-
And there fell upon his sense the briar	A
Haunting the air with its breath	R
And the faint shrill sweetness of the birds' throats	I
Their tent of leaves beneath	S
	-
And there was the Witch in no wise heeding	G
Her arbour and fruit filled dish	T
Her pitcher of well water and clear damask	G
All that the weary wish	T
	-
And the last gold beam across the green world	U
Faltered and failed as he	B
Remembered his solitude and the dark night's	I
Inhospitality	U
	-
And he looked upon the Witch with eyes of sorrow	V
In the darkening of the day	U
And turned him aside into oblivion	W
And the voices died away	U
	-
And the Witch stepped down from her casement	U
In the hush of night he heard	U
The calling and wailing in dewy thicket	U
Of bird to hidden bird	U
	-
And gloom stole all her burning crimson	W
Remote and faint in space	I
As stars in gathering shadow of the evening	G
Seemed now her phantom face	I
	-
And one night's rest shall be a myriad	U
Midst dreams that come and go	V
Till heedless fate unmoved by weakness bring him	O
This same strange by way through	X
	-
To the beauty of earth that fades in ashes	I
The lips of welcome and the eyes	I
More beauteous than the feeble shine of Hesper	A
Lone in the lightening skies	I
	-
Till once again the Witch's guile entreat him	O
But worn with wisdom he	B
Steadfast and cold shall choose the dark night's	I
Inhospitality	U
