On Raglan Road, Autumn day I saw her first and knew That her dark hair would weave a snare I might one day rue I saw the danger and I passed Along the enchanted way And I said, "Let grief be a fallen leaf At the dawning of the day" On Grafton Street, November, we Tripped lightly along the ledge Of a deep ravine where can be seen The worth of passion's play The Queen of Hearts still making tarts I not making hay Oh, I loved too much, by such by such Is happiness thrown away I gave her gifts of the mind I gave her the secret signs That's known to artists who have known The true gods of sound and stone And her words and tint without stint I gave her poems to say With her own name there, her own dark hair Like clouds over fields of May On a quiet street where old ghosts meet I see her walking now Away from me so hurriedly My reason must allow That I had loved not as I should A creature made of clay When the angel woos the clay he'll lose His wings at the dawn of a day
