The face I carry with
me - last -
When I go out of Time -
to take my Rank - by - in
the West -
That face - will just be thine -

I'll hand it to the Angel -
That - Sir - was my Degree -
In Kingdoms - you have heard
the Raised -
Refer to - possibly.

He'll take it - scan it - step
aside -
Return - with such a Crown
As Gabriel - never capered at -
And beg me put it on -

And then - he'll turn me round
and round -
To an admiring sky -
As One that bore her master's name -
Sufficient Royalty!
