| SO I arm thee for the final night, | |
| And for thy one defeat; | |
| For God upon his side shall fight | |
| When thou and he shall meet. | |
| I know, for good or evil, thine | 5 |
| Will be a well-fought field— | |
| For good or evil, master mine, | |
| If I may bear thy shield! | |
| |
| Now art thou the unfaithfullest | |
| Of all that bore the vow— | 10 |
| Yet some there are that love thee best, | |
| Most honor, even now. | |
| I see the face I held divine | |
| Ah, yet divine revealed! | |
| For good or evil, master mine, | 15 |
| If I may bear thy shield! | |
