Homage + 

Elvira, by love’s grace + 

There goeth before you + 

A clear radiance + 

Which maketh all vain souls + 

Candles when noon is. + 

The loud clangour of pretenders + 

Melteth before you + 

Like the roll of carts passing, + 

But you come silently + 

And homage is given. + 

Now the little by-path + 

Which leadeth to love + 

Is again joyful with its many; + 

And the great highway + 

From love + 

Is without passers. + 
