| The bridal garland falls upon the bier | B |
| The shadow of a crown that o'er him hung | C |
| Has vanish'd in the shadow cast by Death | D |
| So princely tender truthful reverent pure | E |
| Mourn That a world wide Empire mourns with you | F |
| That all the Thrones are clouded by your loss | G |
| Were slender solace Yet be comforted | H |
| For if this earth be ruled by Perfect Love | I |
| Then after his brief range of blameless days | J |
| The toll of funeral in an Angel ear | B |
| Sounds happier than the merriest marriage bell | K |
| The face of Death is toward the Sun of Life | L |
| His shadow darkens earth his truer name | M |
| Is 'Onward ' no discordance in the roll | N |
| And march of that Eternal Harmony | O |
| Whereto the worlds beat time tho' faintly heard | P |
| Until the great Hereafter Mourn in hope | Q |
