Whose molded dust and dew we are

With the blown flowers by the wall.

Girt with the twilight she is grave,

The strong companion, wise and free;

She leads beyond the dales of time,

The earldom of the calling sea—

Beyond these dull green miles of dike,

And gleaming breakers on the bar—

To the white kingdom of her lord,

The nameless Word, whose breath we are.
