| Come For I by steep and stone | B |
| Have built such nest for you Juanita | A |
| As not eagle bird hath known | B |
| - | |
| Rugged Rugged as Parnassus | C |
| Rude as all roads I have trod | D |
| Yet are steeps and stone strewn passes | E |
| Smooth o'erhead and nearest God | D |
| - | |
| Here black thunders of my ca ntilde on | F |
| Shake its walls in Titan wars | G |
| Here white sea born clouds companion | H |
| With such peaks as know the stars | I |
| - | |
| Here madrona manzanita | D |
| Here the snarling chaparral | J |
| House and hang o'er steeps Juanita | D |
| Where the gaunt wolf loved to dwell | K |
| - | |
| Dear I took these trackless masses | E |
| Fresh from Him who fashioned them | L |
| Wrought in rock and hewed fair passes | E |
| Flower set as sets a gem | L |

| All is finished Roads of flowers | M |
| Wait your loyal little feet | D |
| All completed Nay the hours | M |
| Till you come are incomplete | D |

| Steep below me lies the valley | N |
| Deep below me lies the town | O |
| Where great sea ships ride and rally | N |
| And the world walks up and down | O |
| - | |
| O the sea of lights far streaming | P |
| When the thousand flags are furled | D |
| When the gleaming bay lies dreaming | P |
| As it duplicates the world | D |
| - | |
| You will come my dearest truest | D |
| Come my sovereign queen of ten | Q |
| My blue skies will then be bluest | D |
| My white rose be whitest then | Q |
| - | |
| Then the song Ah then the sabre | R |
| Flashing up the walls of night | D |
| Hate of wrong and love of neighbor | R |
| Rhymes of battle for the Right | D |
