| When on a novel's newly printed page | B |
| We find a maudlin eulogy of sin | C |
| And read of ways that harlots wander in | C |
| And of sick souls that writhe in helpless rage | B |
| Or when Romance bespectacled and sage | B |
| Taps on her desk and bids the class begin | C |
| To con the problems that have always been | C |
| Perplexed mankind's unhappy heritage | D |

| Then in what robes of honor habited | E |
| The laureled wizard of the North appears | F |
| Who raised Prince Charlie's cohorts from the dead | E |
| Made Rose's mirth and Flora's noble tears | G |
| And formed that shining legion at whose head | E |
| Rides Waverley triumphant o'er the years | F |
