"A Feast of Lanterns", by L. Cranmer-Byng, [1916],

p. 95

Home

Surely there sings no lighter heart than mine beneath the sky!

And now, companion of my nights of long moon-dreams, good-bye!

For mine is the silver dragon car

That hovers beyond the Rainbow Dome, 1

And it's oh to be galloping, galloping home

Where my dream-born children are!
