| How beautiful they stand | B |
| Amidst their tall ancestral trees | C |

| Around their hearths by night | F |
| What gladsome looks of household love | G |

| Some glorious page of old | I |

| The cottage homes of England | A |
| By thousands on her plains | J |
| They are smiling o'er the silv'ry brook | K |
| And round the hamlet fanes | J |
| Through glowing orchards forth they peep | L |
| Each from its nook of leaves | J |
| And fearless there the lowly sleep | L |
| As the bird beneath their eaves | J |
| - | |
| The free fair homes of England | A |
| Long long in hut and hall | M |
| May hearts of native proof be rear'd | N |
| To guard each hallow'd wall | M |
| And green for ever be the groves | J |
| And bright the flow'ry sod | O |
| Where first the child's glad spirit loves | J |
| Its country and its God | O |
