"He that hath failed in a little thing

Hath a sign upon the brow;

And the Earls of the Great Army

Have no such seal to show.

"The red print on my forehead,

Small flame for a red star,

In the van of the violent marching, then

When the sky is torn of the trumpets ten,

And the hands of the happy howling men

Fling wide the gates of war.

"This blow that I return not

Ten times will I return

On kings and earls of all degree,

And armies wide as empires be

Shall slide like landslips to the sea

If the red star burn.
