O tangle of world s wrong and right | A |
What art thou gainst my armour s gleam | B |
But dusky cobwebs of a dream | B |

Beat down deep sunk from every gleam | B |
Of hope they lie and dully dream | B |
Men once but men no more that Love | C |
Their waste defeated hearts should move | D |

Here sleeps the world that would not love | C |
Let it sleep on but if He move | D |
Their hearts in humble wise to wait | E |
On his new wakened fair estate | E |

O won at last is never late | E |
Thy silence was the voice of fate | E |
Thy still hands conquered in the strife | F |
Thine eyes were light thy lips were life | F |
