Verse 1

So fallen, so lost, the light withdrawn
      G
Which once he wore
    Dm
The glory from his grey hair gone
   Am
Forevermore

Verse 2

Revile him not, the Tempter hath
  G
A snare for all
    Dm
And pitying tears, not scorn or wrath
  Am
Befit his fall

Verse 3

Oh, dumb be passion's stormy rage
     G
When he who might
     Dm
Have lighted up and led his age
      Am
Falls back in night

Verse 4

Scorn, would the angels laugh to mark
  G
A bright soul driven
      Dm
Fiend goaded down the endless dark
     Am
From hope and heaven

Verse 5

Let not the land once proud of him
  G
Insult him now
    Dm
Nor brand with deeper shame his dim
   Am
Dishonoured brow

Verse 6

But let its humbled sons instead
     G
From sea to lake
  Dm
A long lament, as for the dead
   Am
In sadness make

Verse 7

Of all we loved and honoured
            G
Naught save power remains
  Dm
A fallen angel's pride of thought
      Am
Still strong in chains

Verse 8

All else is gone from those great eyes
    G
The soul has fled
     Dm
When faith is lost, when honour dies
    Am
The man is dead

Verse 9

Then pay the reverence of old days
   G
To his dead fame
     Dm
Walk backward with averted gaze
    Am
And hide the shame
