Nine Thorny Tickets |
All this I was doing over a man |
In loneliness going across the bare moor |
And through the blind night, in the pitch of the darkness |
Lost from the high road |
Through many riched fields |
Down slopes that were soggy |
Over stubble and furrow, with stumble and sorrow |
Through nine thorny thickets by ruined old forts |
To the brow of the mountain |
And missing the box and their green habitation |
Whose hateful companions circled around me |
A fighter betrayed in the thick of the battle |
A girl in a jail, a girl in a jail |
But worse than the fogs of all desolation |
Were the spirits of evil circling around m |
And my crossing and praying, my charming and rhyme |
Of little avail |
This took a long time, but at last, I lookd up |
And there were the stars |
Like cherries, they were, in the orchard of night |
All yellow and red, all shining and bright |
The sparks of the bonfires for seven dear saints |
The gems of the host and the harness of heaven |
The pickets of embers whose orbits are long |
And wind cannot take them |
Wind cannot take them |
I stopped in my tracks, «look you» I said |
This is over and done he has got to be told |
God forgive me the telling, I’ll travel no more |
To the door of his dwelling, I’ll travel no more |
Through any such goings, nor block my good acts |
On the face of the stone |
