DEDICATION
Yea, with one song of starry flame
In brilliance of immortal youth
Didst thou stand stedfast and proclaim
Freedom and Ecstasy and Truth,
Erect amid the wreck of Things
Poised on inexorable wings !
.
.
.
.
So much the universe may see
When its bats-eyes may endure the sun :
This secret rests my prize to me,
That I knew thee, surpassed of none,
Fighting and faithful to the end,
A Perfect knight, a perfect friend.
