When I consider how my light is spent

When I consider how my light is spent

Fill the earth with peace no chaos no weapons no wars no pangs

A moment of brightness

What riches the display to me had delivered

We all will solve together

In this sort of jocund business enterprise

My genuine account lest he returning chide

Welling and swelling I bear in the tide

What wealth the show to me had brought

The low lands name

The victorious were excited having got all easy victory

I say

They extended in ceaseless line

dreams and goals

As doth eternity bloodless Pastoral

My actual record for fear that he returning criticize

To draw magically black plots everywhere

And soonest our best men with thee do go

What the hand set out grab the fire
