<poem>
The rain had fallen, the Poet arose,
The rain had fallen, the Poet arose,
He pass’d by the town and out of the street,
He pass’d by the town and out of the street,
Line 40: Line 41:
But never a one so gay”,
But never a one so gay”,
For he sings of what the world will be
For he sings of what the world will be
When the years have died away.
When the years have died away.}}

The rain had fallen, the Poet arose,
He pass’d by the town and out of the street,
A light wind blew from the gates of the sun
And waves of shadow went over the wheat
And he sat him down in a lonely place
And chanted a melody loud and sweet
That made the wild swan pause on her cloud
And the lark drop down at his feet.

The swallow stopt as he hunted the bee,
The snake slipt under the spray,
The wild hawk stood with the down on his beak
And stared with his foot on the prey;
And the nightingale thought, “I have sung many songs,
But never a one so gay”,
For he sings of what the world will be
When the years have died away.
