Fellowship

In the old accents I will sing, my Glory, my Delight,
In the old accents, tipped with flame, before we knew the right,
True way of singing with reserve. O Love, with pagan might.

White in our steeds, and white too in our armour let us ride,
Immortal, white, triumphing, flashing downward side by side
To where our friends, the Argonauts, are fighting with the tide.

Let us draw calm to them, Beloved, the souls on heavenly voyage bound.
Saluting as one presence. Great disaster were it found.
If one with half-fed lambency should halt and flicker round.

O friends so fondly loving, so beloved, look up to us
In constellation breaking on your errand, prosperous,
O Argonauts!

Now, faded from their sight,
We cling and joy. It was thy intercession gave me right,
My Fellow, to this fellowship. My Glory my Delight!
