On Raglan road

On an autumn day

I saw her first

And knew

That her dark hair would

Weave a snare

That I might someday rue

I saw the danger

Yet I walked

Along the enchanted way

And I said let grief

Be a falling leaf

At the dawning of the day

On Grafton street

In November

We tripped lightly along the ledge

Of the deep ravine where can be seen

The worth

Of passions pledged

The queen of hearts still making tarts

And I not making hay

Oh I loved too much

And by such and such

Is happiness

Thrown away

I gave her gifts

Of the mind

I gave her the secret sign

That's known to a artists

Who have known

True Gods

Of sound and stone

And word and tint

I did not stint

I gave her poems

To say

With her own name there

And her own dark hair

Like clouds

Over fields of May

On a quiet street

Where old ghosts meet

I see her walking

Now

Away from me so hurriedly

My reason must allow

That I had would not as I should

A creature made of clay

When the angel woos

The clay

He'd lose his wings at

The dawn and of the day

When the angel woos

His clay

He'd lose

His wings at

The dawn and

Of the day
