Our own surviving Love endears | B |
If there the cherish'd heart be fond | A |
The eye the same except in tears | B |
How welcome those untrodden spheres | B |
How sweet this very your to die | C |
To soar from earth and find all fears | B |
Lost in thy light Eternity | D |

To hold each heart the heart that shares | B |
With them the immortal waters drink | F |
And soul in soul grow deathless theirs | B |
