And on her lover's arm she leant,
And round her waist she felt it fold,
And far read more

And on her lover's arm she leant,
And round her waist she felt it fold,
And far across the hills they went,
In that new world that is the old.

To beat us down, the which are down already;
And make a conquest of unhappy,
Whereas no glory 's got to overcome.
