| Something more than princely blood | J |
| Courses in thy tranquil face | K |
| When she lent thee such a grace | K |
| Nature lit life's earnest flame | L |
| In her most queenly mood | M |

| We will be made rich indeed | C2 |
| With the wonders it contains | D2 |
| Rich beyond all previous gains | D2 |
| Richer for thy thought and thee | B |
| Beyond our greatest meed | C2 |
