I Went Down Into The Desert To Meet Elijah - Arisen From The Dead. I Thought To Find Him In An Echoing Cave; For So My Dream Had Said. I Went Down Into The Desert To Meet John The Baptist. I Walked With Feet That Bled, Seeking That Prophet Lean And Brown And Bold. I Spied Foul Fiends Instead. I Went Down Into The Desert To Meet My God. By Him Be Comforted. I Went Down Into The Desert To Meet My God. And I Met The Devil In Red. I Went Down Into The Desert To Meet My God. O, Lord My God, Awaken From The Dead! I See You There, Your Thorn-Crown On The Ground, I See You There, Half-Buried In The Sand. I See You There, Your White Bones Glistening, Bare, The Carrion-Birds A-Wheeling Round Your Head.
