Each scarce-healed cicatrice

Doing to her divers and disgusting things

Whilst in her ears my chaunt,

Re-risen and reboant,

Sounds as one sounds, who, being senseless, sings.

Strophe II.

On one cant name of many names I have chosen—

Freedom—lo, once again I call to thee;

By the cold earth’s iron-bound ends and oceans frozen,

By the rivers that run billowing to the sea,
