With magic in my eyes!
Nor did the wisest wizard guess
What would bechance at Lyonnesse
When I came back from Lyonnesse
All marked with mute surmise
While I should sojourn there
When I set out for Lyonnesse,
While I should sojourn there.
With magic in my eyes,

What would bechance at Lyonnesse
My radiance rare and fathomless,
When I came back from Lyonnesse
A hundred miles away,
When I set out for Lyonnesse
The rime was on the spray,
