When I Set Out For Lyonnesse

    By Thomas Hardy



    When I set out for Lyonnesse,
        A hundred miles away,
        The rime was on the spray,
    And starlight lit my lonesomeness
    When I set out for Lyonnesse
        A hundred miles away.

    What would bechance at Lyonnesse
        While I should sojourn there
        No prophet durst declare,
    Nor did the wisest wizard guess
    What would bechance at Lyonnesse
        While I should sojourn there.

    When I came back from Lyonnesse
        With magic in my eyes,
        None managed to surmise
    What meant my godlike gloriousness,
    When I came back from Lyonnesse
        With magic in my eyes.
