| Lady Blanche. |
| Come mighty Must! |
| |
Inevitable Shall! |
| In thee I trust. |
| |
Time weaves my coronal! |
| Go mocking Is! |
| |
Go disappointing Was! |
| That I am this |
| |
Ye are the cursed cause!
Ye are the cursed cause! |
Yet humble second shall be first, I ween,
And dead and buried be the curst Has Been!
|
| Oh weak Might Be! |
| |
Oh May, Might, Could, Would, Should! |
| How pow'rless ye |
| |
For evil or for good! |
| In ev'ry sense |
| |
Your moods I cheerless call, |
| Whate'er your tense |
| |
Ye are Imperfect, all! |
Ye have deceiv'd the trust I've shown in ye!
Ye have deceiv'd the trust I've shown in ye!
I've shown in ye!
Away!
The Mighty Must alone shall be! |
