[00:04.29] |
The silver trumpets rang across the Dome: |
[00:07.67] |
The people knelt upon the ground with awe: |
[00:10.34] |
And borne upon the necks of men I saw, |
[00:12.56] |
Like some great God, the Holy Lord of Rome. |
[00:18.15] |
Priest-like, he wore a robe more white than foam, |
[00:21.83] |
And king-like, swathed himself in royal red, |
[00:26.50] |
Three crowns of gold rose high upon his head: |
[00:30.43] |
In splendor and in light the Pope passed home. |
[00:39.07] |
My heart stole back across wide wastes of years, |
[00:42.46] |
To one who wandered by a lonely sea, |
[00:46.25] |
And sought in vain for any place of rest: |
[00:51.55] |
"Foxes have holes, and every bird its nest |
[00:54.59] |
I, only I, must wander wearily, |
[01:01.00] |
And bruise my feet, and drink wine salt with tears." |
