| - | |
| This hushed surface where the doves parade | B |
| Amid the pines vibrates amid the graves | C |
| Here the noon's justice unites all fires when | D |
| The sea aspires forever to begin again and again | D |
| O what a gratification comes after long meditation | E |
| O satisfaction after long meditation or ratiocination | E |
| Upon the calm of the gods | F |
| Upon the divine serenity in luxurious contemplation | E |
| - | |
| What pure toil of perfect lightning enwombs consumes | G |
| Each various manifold jewel of imperceptible foam | H |
| And how profound a peace appears to be begotten and | I |
| begun | E |
| When upon the abyss the sunlight seems to pause | J |
| The pure effects of an eternal cause | K |
| Time itself sparkles to dream and to know are one | E |
