| Horseman Springing |
| | | Lilla Cabot Perry |
| |
| |
| “HORSEMAN, springing from the dark, | |
| Horseman, flying wild and free, | |
| Tell me what shall be thy road | |
| Whither speedest far from me?” | |
| |
| “From the dark into the light, | 5 |
| From the small unto the great, | |
| From the valleys dark I ride | |
| O’er the hills to conquer fate!” | |
| |
| “Take me with thee, horseman mine! | |
| Let me madly rode with thee!” | 10 |
| As he turned I met his eyes, | |
| My own soul looked back at me! | |
