Prison

In the prison-house of the dark
I lay with open eyes
And pale beyond the pale windows
I saw the dawn rise

From past the bounds of space
Where earthly vapours climb
There stirred the voice I shall not hear
On this side Time

There is one death for the body
And one death for the heart
And one prayer for the hope of the end
When some links part

Christ, from uncounted leagues
Beyond the sun and moon
Strike with the sword of Thine own pity
Bring the dawn soon
