HAPPY 99 XI.
Foul ! foul ! the word was yours not mine, I worship that right hand Which fell'd the foes before you as the woodman fells the wood, And sway'd the sword that lighten'd back the sun of Holy land. And clove the Moslem crescent moon, and changed it into blood.
XII.
And once I worshipt all too well this creature of decay, For Age will chink the face, and Death will freeze the supplest limbs — Yet you in your mid manhood — O the grief when yesterday lOO HAPPY They bore the Cross before... you to the chant of funeral hymns.
XIII.
' Libera me, Domine ! ' you sang the Psahu, and when The Priest pronounced you dead, and flung the mould upon your feet, A beauty came upon your face, not that of living men, But seen upon the silent brow when life has ceased to beat.
XIV.
' Libera nos, Domine ' — you knew not one was there Who saw you kneel beside your bier, and weep- ing scarce could see ; HAPPY lOi May I come a little nearer, I that heard, and changed the prayer And sang the married * nos ' for the solitary ' me.
