| | From Golden Darkness A BLEAK wind rides on the waves, | |
| And the shadowy foam is hurled. | |
| Grey rains are on the hills, | |
| And a grey dusk is over the world. | |
| |
| Bleak moods and shadowy moods | 5 |
| Move like the moods of the sea; | |
| The mist, a grey unspoken thought, | |
| Is looking strangely at me. | |
| |
| And I am lost in greyness | |
| My dreams are still and furled; | 10 |
| For the grey rains are on the hills, | |
| And a grey dusk is over the world. | | | | |
