| He looked half parson and half skipper a quaint | B |
| Beautiful blend with blue eyes good to see | C |
| And old world whiskers You found him cynic saint | B |
| Salt humourist Christian poet with a free | C |
| Far glancing luminous utterance and a heart | D |
| Large as ST FRANCIS'S withal a brain | E |
| Stored with experience letters fancy art | D |
| And scored with runes of human joy and pain | E |
| Till six and sixty years he used his gift | F |
| His gift unparalleled of laughter and tears | G |
| And left the world a high piled golden drift | F |
| Of verse to grow more golden with the years | H |
| Till the Great Silence fallen upon his ways | I |
| Break into song and he that had Love have Praise | I |
