THREE LYRICS FROM THE ZODIAC: CAPRICORN, by                    
First Line: Monster of mythical shape
Last Line: Goat with the born of gold!
Subject(s): Zodiac


Monster of mythical shape,
Goat with a golden horn,
Goat with a dolphin's tail,
Mystical Capricorn --
Under your starry sign
Now the new year is born.

Naked the young year comes
Into earth's deepest cold;
Warm him with starry fire
In your celestial fold,
Great god Pan of the skies,
Goat with the born of gold!
