Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDED FFFFGG HIFJIKL MNFNFF OAOAFF| Where is the world we roved Ned Bunn | A |
| Hollows thereof lay rich in shade | B |
| By voyagers old inviolate thrown | C |
| Ere Paul Pry cruised with Pelf and Trade | B |
| To us old lads some thoughts come home | D |
| Who roamed a world young lads no more shall | E |
| roam | D |
| - | |
| Nor less the satiate year impends | F |
| When wearying of routine resorts | F |
| The pleasure hunter shall break loose | F |
| Ned for our Pantheistic ports | F |
| Marquesas and glenned isles that be | G |
| Authentic Edens in a Pagan sea | G |
| - | |
| The charm of scenes untried shall lure | H |
| And Ned a legend urge the flight | I |
| The Typee truants under stars | F |
| Unknown to Shakespere's Midsummer | J |
| Night | I |
| And man if lost to Saturn's Age | K |
| Yet feeling life no Syrian pilgrimage | L |
| - | |
| But tell shall he the tourist find | M |
| Our isles the same in violet glow | N |
| Enamoring us what years and years | F |
| Ah Ned what years and years ago | N |
| Well Adam advances smart in pace | F |
| But scarce by violets that advance you trace | F |
| - | |
| But we in anchor watches calm | O |
| The Indian Psyche's languor won | A |
| And musing breathed primeval balm | O |
| From Edens ere yet overrun | A |
| Marvelling mild if mortal twice | F |
| Here and hereafter touch a Paradise | F |
