The wonder of the resurrection morn,

The face apocalyptic and the sword,

The glory of the many-symboled Lord,

Hugh, lifting up his eyes about him, saw!

And something in him like a vernal thaw,

Voiced with the sound of many waters, ran

And quickened to the laughter of a man.

Light-heartedly he fed the singing flame

And took its blessing: till a soft sleep came

With dreaming that was like a pleasant tale.
