| With weary frame which painfully I bear | C |
| I look behind me at each onward pace | A |
| And then take comfort from your native air | C |
| Which following fans my melancholy face | A |
| The far way my frail life the cherish'd fair | C |
| Whom thus I leave as then my thoughts retrace | A |
| I fix my feet in silent pale despair | C |
| And on the earth my tearful eyes abase | A |
| At times a doubt too rises on my woes | A |
| How ever can this weak and wasted frame | D |
| Live from life's spirit and one source afar | E |
| Love's answer soon the truth forgotten shows | A |
| This high pure privilege true lovers claim | D |
| Who from mere human feelings franchised are | E |

| I look behind each step I onward trace | A |
| Scarce able to support my wearied frame | D |
| Ah wretched me I pantingly exclaim | D |
| And from her atmosphere new strength embrace | A |
| I think on her I leave my heart's best grace | A |
| My lengthen'd journey life's capricious flame | D |
| I pause in withering fear with purpose tame | D |
| Whilst down my cheek tears quick each other chase | A |
| My doubting heart thus questions in my grief | G |
| Whence comes it that existence thou canst know | H |
| When from thy spirit thou dost dwell entire | F |
| Love holy Love my heart then answers brief | G |
| Such privilege I do on all bestow | H |
| Who feed my flame with nought of earthly fire | F |
