| To the happy small nest of home | B |
| Green from basement to roof | C |

| Safe from the spider that weaves | F |
| Her warp and her woof | C |
| In some outermost leaves | F |

| Through the vales to my love | A |
| In sweet April hours | E |
| All rainbows and showers | E |
| While dove answers dove | A |
| In beautiful May | G |
| When the orchards are tender | H |
| And frothing with flowers | E |
| In opulent June | I |
| When the wheat stands up slender | H |
| By sweet smelling hay | G |
| And half the sun's splendour | H |
| Descends to the moon | I |

| Through the vales to my love | A |
| Where the turf is so soft to the feet | J |
| And the thyme makes it sweet | J |
| And the stately foxglove | A |
| Hangs silent its exquisite bells | K |
| And where water wells | K |
| The greenness grows greener | H |
| And bulrushes stand | L |
| Round a lily to screen her | H |
| - | |
| Nevertheless if this land | L |
| Like a garden to smell and to sight | M |
| Were turned to a desert of sand | L |
| Stripped bare of delight | M |
| All its best gone to worst | N |
| For my feet no repose | O |
| No water to comfort my thirst | N |
| And heaven like a furnace above | A |
| The desert would be | P |
| As gushing of waters to me | P |
| The wilderness be as a rose | O |
| If it led me to thee | P |
| O my love | A |
