Vi

by

Listen in the reader

Wind of the outer waste, Threne of the outer world, Leash of the stars unlaced, Morning unfurled,

Somewhere at God’s great need, I know not how, With the old strength and speed He is come now;

Therefore my soul is glad With the old pride, Tho’ this small life is sad Here in my side.
