Nor Rip, nor wrinkle indicate
But just an Asterisk.

He lived the Life of Ambush

And went the way of Dusk
And now against his subtle name
There stands an Asterisk
As confident of him as we --

Within a star --

Who abdicated Ambush

And went the way of Dusk,
And now against his subtle Name

As confident of him as we --
Impregnable we are --

Secreted in a Star.
