 'And blessedness goes where the wind goes, 'And when it is gone we are dead; 'I see the blessedest soul in the world 'And he nods a drunken head.

'O blessedness comes in the night and the day 'And whither the wise heart knows; 'And one has seen in the redness of wine 'The Incorruptible Rose,

'That drowsily drops faint leaves on him 'And the sweetness of desire, 'While time and the world are ebbing away 'In twilights of dew and of ﬁre.'
