And who by fire, who by water,
|
who in the sunshine, who in the night time,
|
who by high ordeal, who by common trial,
|
who in your merry merry month of may,
|
who by very slow decay,
|
and who shall I say is calling?
|
And who in her lonely slip, who by barbiturate,
|
who in these realms of love, who by something blunt,
|
and who by avalanche, who by powder,
|
who for his greed, who for his hunger,
|
and who shall I say is calling?
|
|
And who by brave assent, who by accident,
|
who in solitude, who in this mirror,
|
who by his lady's command, who by his own hand,
|
who in mortal chains, who in power,
|
and who shall I say is calling?
|
