Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCD EFEFCDCD

Between the dusk of a summer nightA
And the dawn of a summer dayB
We caught at a mood as it passed in flightA
And we bade it stoop and stayB
And what with the dawn of night beganC
With the dusk of day was doneD
For that is the way of woman and manC
When a hazard has made them oneD
-
Arc upon arc from shade to shineE
The World went thundering freeF
And what was his errand but hers and mineE
The lords of him I and sheF
O it's die we must but it's live we canC
And the marvel of earth and sunD
Is all for the joy of woman and manC
And the longing that makes them oneD
