Who trusted love was true indeed, And love Creation's final law
Tho' Nature, red in tooth and claw, With ravine, shriek'd against his creed
Let Love clasp Grief lest both be drown'd, Let darkness keep her raven gloss
Ah, sweeter to be drunk with loss, To dance with death, to beat the ground
Old Yew, which graspest at the stones, That name the under-lying dead
Thy fibres net the dreamless head, Thy roots are wrapt about the bones
Let Love clasp Grief lest both be drown'd, Let darkness keep her raven gloss
Ah, sweeter to be drunk with loss, To dance with death, to beat the ground
I held it truth, with him who sings, To one clear harp in divers tones
That men may rise on stepping-stones, Of their dead selves to higher things
Peace; come away: the song of woe, Is after all an earthly song
Peace; come away: we do him wrong, To sing so wildly
Let us go
Let Love clasp Grief lest both be drown'd, Let darkness keep her raven gloss
Ah, sweeter to be drunk with loss, To dance with death, to beat the ground
Strong Son of Life, eternal Love
Whom we, that have not seen thy face
By trust, and trust alone, embrace
Believing where we cannot prove.
