Rhyme Scheme: ABBA CDDC EFFE GHHG IJJI KLMK NOON| I leave you ye cold mountain chains | A |
| Dwelling of warriors stark and frore | B |
| You may these eyes behold no more | B |
| Rave on the horizon of our plains | A |
| - | |
| Vanish ye frightful gloomy views | C |
| Ye rocks that mount up to the clouds | D |
| Of skies enwrapped in misty shrouds | D |
| Impracticable avenues | C |
| - | |
| Ye torrents that with might and main | E |
| Break pathways through the rocky walls | F |
| With your terrific waterfalls | F |
| Fatigue no more my weary brain | E |
| - | |
| Arise ye landscapes full of charms | G |
| Arise ye pictures of delight | H |
| Ye brooks that water in your flight | H |
| The flowers and harvests of our farms | G |
| - | |
| You I perceive ye meadows green | I |
| Where the Garonne the lowland fills | J |
| Not far from that long chain of hills | J |
| With intermingled vales between | I |
| - | |
| You wreath of smoke that mounts so high | K |
| Methinks from my own hearth must come | L |
| With speed to that beloved home | M |
| Fly ye too lazy coursers fly | K |
| - | |
| And bear me thither where the soul | N |
| In quiet may itself possess | O |
| Where all things soothe the mind's distress | O |
| Where all things teach me and console | N |
