Then answered she whom all men called ‘The Maid,’
The slight, pale damsel with the naked feet,
Red lips, red kirtle, visionary eyes:
‘The worthier see thy Face; thy Voice alone
I hear, and oft have heard, and love it well,
Saint Michael, Prince of all those heavenly Powers
That hurled Rebellion forth from Heaven, I go.’
The slight, pale damsel with the naked feet,
Red lips, red kirtle, visionary eyes:
‘The worthier see thy Face; thy Voice alone
I hear, and oft have heard, and love it well,

That hurled Rebellion forth from Heaven, I go.’
