THE RIDER
Reading edition
On the horses of desire Over the tossing trees I have hunted the Pillar of Fire To his inmost fastnesses. On the eagles of despair Where the thunders meet, I have hunted the Powers of the Air To their last retreat. Over chasm and over crag On the horned moon riding, I have hunted the night-hag To her furthest hiding. On the lions of exultation I ride to my doom! No tears of human desolation Shall find my tomb.
