A multitude of round ivory faces,
Safely exist in square light places,
High upon lofty, carved ivory thrones,
To throw out hard, white marble stones.
A multitude of round ebony faces,
Safely exist in square dark places,
High upon lofty, carved ebony thrones,
To throw out hard, black marble stones.
Innumerable round ivory and ebony faces,
Safely live in their united light and dark places,
High upon lofty, blended ebony and ivory thrones,
To toss flower petals, instead of colored marble stones.
