“Then⁠ ⁠… I was lying awake in bed,

Shot through with tremulous thought, lame hopes, and sweet

Desire of reckless days⁠—with burning head.

And then there came a clamour from the street,

Came nearer, nearer, nearer⁠—stamping feet

And screaming song and curses and a shout

Of ‘Who’s for Dymer, Dymer?⁠—Up and out!’
