The green fields below him, the blue sky above,
That he sings, and he sings; and for ever sings he—

And sculptured Ann is seventy years of stone.
These cloud-sopped, marble hands, this monumental
Argument of the hewn voice, gesture and psalm,
Storm me forever over her grave”

From the loose earth and rub against his eyes
A fist of trees, and the whole country tremble
In the exultant labor of his rise;”

his tyranny, his absolute kingdom,
with my aphrodisiac.”

The earth by the sky staid with, the daily close of their junction,
The heav’d challenge from the east that moment over my head,
The mocking taunt, See then whether you shall be master!”
