One Life of so much Consequence!

One Life of so much Consequence! Yet I -- for it -- would pay -- My Soul's entire income -- In ceaseless -- salary --

One Pearl -- to me -- so signal -- That I would instant dive -- Although -- I knew -- to take it -- Would cost me -- just a life!

The Sea is full -- I know it! That -- does not blur my Gem! It burns -- distinct from all the row -- Intact -- in Diadem!

The life is thick -- I know it! Yet -- not so dense a crowd -- But Monarchs -- are perceptible -- Far down the dustiest Road!
