The Procession of Prisoners.

Blissful to sleep ’neath the blood-reeking sod;

Blissful to wake in the gardens of God.

The Procession of Apollo.

Gladsome ’mid incense-clouds still to draw breath.

The Procession of Prisoners.

Blissful in blood-streams to strangle to death.

The Procession of Apollo.

Ever for him who his godhead adoreth

Deep draughts of rapture Apollo outpoureth.
