| Soothing and gentle as a mother's kiss | D |
| The touch that stopped the beating of the heart | E |

| On such a golden evening forth there floats | G |
| Between the grave earth and the glowing sky | H |
| In the clear air unvexed with hazy motes | G |
| The mystic winged and flickering butterfly | H |
| A human soul that drifts at liberty | I |
| Ah who can tell to what strange paradise | J |
| To what undreamed of fields and lofty skies | K |
