| With naught to shield me from the starry sky | H |
| And dream of yet untasted victory | B |
| A distant hope and feel that I am free | B |
| - | |
| O happy life To range the mountains wild | J |
| The waving woods or Ocean's heaving breast | K |
| With limbs unfettered conscience undefiled | K |
| And choosing where to wander where to rest | K |
| Hunted oppressed but ever strong to cope | L |
| With toils and perils ever full of hope | L |
| - | |
| 'Our flower is budding' When that word was heard | K |
| On desert shore or breezy mountain's brow | M |
| Wherever said what glorious thoughts it stirred | K |
| 'Twas budding then Say has it blossomed now | M |
| Is this the end we struggled to obtain | N |
| O for the wandering Outlaw's life again | O |
