| That's the life for me | B |
| Wandering with the wandering wind | C |
| Vagabond and unconfined | C |
| Roving with the roving rain | A |
| Its unboundaried domain | A |
| Kith and kin of wander kind | C |
| Children of the sea | B |
| - | |
| Petrels of the sea drift | D |
| Swallows of the lea | B |
| Arabs of the whole wide girth | E |
| Of the wind encircled earth | E |
| In all climes we pitch our tents | F |
| Cronies of the elements | G |
| With the secret lords of birth | E |
| Intimate and free | B |
| - | |
| All the seaboard knows us | H |
| From Fundy to the Keys | I |
| Every bend and every creek | J |
| Of abundant Chesapeake | J |
| Ardise hills and Newport coves | K |
| And the far off orange groves | K |
| Where Floridian oceans break | L |
| Tropic tiger seas | I |
| - | |
| Down the world with Marna | A |
| Tarrying there and here | M |
| Just as much at home in Spain | A |
| As in Tangier or Touraine | A |
| Shakespeare's Avon knows us well | N |
| And the crags of Neufch tel | N |
| And the ancient Nile is fain | A |
| Of our coming near | O |
| - | |
| Down the world with Marna | A |
| Daughter of the air | P |
| Marna of the subtle grace | Q |
| And the vision in her face | Q |
| Moving in the measures trod | R |
| By the angels before God | R |
| With her sky blue eyes amaze | S |
| And her sea blue hair | P |
| - | |
| Marna with the trees' life | T |
| In her veins a stir | U |
| Marna of the aspen heart | V |
| Where the sudden quivers start | V |
| Quick responsive subtle wild | W |
| Artless as an artless child | W |
| Spite of all her reach of art | V |
| Oh to roam with her | U |
| - | |
| Marna with the wind's will | X |
| Daughter of the sea | B |
| Marna of the quick disdain | A |
| Starting at the dream of stain | A |
| At a smile with love aglow | Y |
| At a frown a statued woe | Y |
| Standing pinnacled in pain | A |
| Till a kiss sets free | B |
| - | |
| Down the world with Marna | A |
| Daughter of the fire | U |
| Marna of the deathless hope | Z |
| Still alert to win new scope | Z |
| Where the wings of life may spread | A2 |
| For a flight unhazarded | A2 |
| Dreaming of the speech to cope | Z |
| With the heart's desire | U |
| - | |
| Marna of the far quest | A2 |
| After the divine | A |
| Striving ever for some goal | B2 |
| Past the blunder god's control | B2 |
| Dreaming of potential years | C2 |
| When no day shall dawn in fears | C2 |
| That's the Marna of my soul | B2 |
| Wander bride of mine | A |
