| The tidings which were told | A |
| Twin fallen kings twin perished hopes to mourn | B |
| The slayer the slain | C |
| The entangled doom forlorn | B |
| And ruinous end of twain | C |
| Say is not sorrow is not sorrow's sum | D |
| On home and hearthstone come | D |
| Oh waft with sighs the sail from shore | E |
| Oh smite the bosom cadencing the oar | E |
| That rows beyond the rueful stream for aye | F |
| To the far strand | G |
| The ship of souls the dark | H |
| The unreturning bark | H |
| Whereon light never falls nor foot of Day | I |
| Even to the bourne of all to the unbeholden land | G |
