Let Now No Reasonable Star

let now no reasonable star clang out

suddenly rogue as the clouds by winter's tempests driven

let my heart be riven so may it be faithful to the end

and not dissemble in a Romantic strain

beyond the borders that song allows.

I vow to thee countries of the illimitable imagination

it's all for the trefoil of abiding love

Christ died to shine straight through 

the world's dim equipoise refined, defined

in purity and truth, there is no denying.
