| Of the old magician rid | B |
| And henceforth shall ev'ry spirit | C |
| Do whate'er by me is bid | B |
| I have watch'd with rigour | D |
| All he used to do | E |
| And will now with vigour | D |
| Work my wonders too | E |
| - | |
| Wander wander | D |
| Onward lightly | F |
| So that rightly | F |
| Flow the torrent | G |
| And with teeming waters yonder | D |
| In the bath discharge its current | G |
| - | |
| And now come thou well worn broom | H |
| And thy wretched form bestir | D |
| Thou hast ever served as groom | H |
| So fulfil my pleasure sir | D |
| On two legs now stand | I |
| With a head on top | J |
| Waterpail in hand | I |
| Haste and do not stop | J |

| Wander wander | D |
| Onward lightly | F |
| So that rightly | F |
| Flow the torrent | G |
| And with teeming waters yonder | D |
| In the bath discharge its current | G |

| See he's running to the shore | D |
| And has now attain'd the pool | K |
| And with lightning speed once more | D |
| Comes here with his bucket full | L |
| - | |
| Back he then repairs | M |
| See how swells the tide | N |
| How each pail he bears | M |
| Straightway is supplied | N |
| - | |
| Stop for lo | O |
| All the measure | D |
| Of thy treasure | D |
| Now is right | P |
| - | |
| Ah I see it woe oh woe | O |
| I forget the word of might | P |
| Ah the word whose sound can straight | Q |
| Make him what he was before | D |
| Ah he runs with nimble gait | Q |
| - | |
| Would thou wert a broom once more | D |
| Streams renew'd for ever | D |
| Quickly bringeth he | F |
| River after river | D |
| Rusheth on poor me | F |
| - | |
| Now no longer | D |
| Can I bear him | R |
| I will snare him | R |
| Knavish sprite | P |
| Ah my terror waxes stronger | D |
| What a look what fearful sight | P |
| - | |
| Oh thou villain child of hell | S |
| Shall the house through thee be drown'd | T |
| Floods I see that wildly swell | S |
| O'er the threshold gaining ground | T |
| - | |
| Wilt thou not obey | U |
| Oh thou broom accurs'd | T |
| Be thou still I pray | U |
| As thou wert at first | T |
| - | |
| Will enough | V |
| Never please thee | F |
| I will seize thee | F |
| Hold thee fast | T |
| And thy nimble wood so tough | V |
| With my sharp axe split at last | T |
| - | |
| See once more he hastens back | W |
| Now oh Cobold thou shalt catch it | T |
| I will rush upon his track | W |
| Crashing on him falls my hatchet | T |
| - | |
| Bravely done indeed | T |
| See he's cleft in twain | X |
| Now from care I'm freed | T |
| And can breathe again | Y |
| - | |
| Woe oh woe | O |
| Both the parts | Z |
| Quick as darts | Z |
| Stand on end | T |
| Servants of my dreaded foe | O |
| Oh ye gods protection send | T |
| - | |
| And they run and wetter still | A2 |
| Grow the steps and grows the hail | B2 |
| Lord and master hear me call | C2 |
| Ever seems the flood to fill | A2 |
| - | |
| Ah he's coming see | F |
| Great is my dismay | U |
| Spirits raised by me | F |
| Vainly would I lay | U |
| - | |
| To the side | T |
| Of the room | H |
| Hasten broom | H |
| As of old | T |
| Spirits I have ne'er untied | T |
| Save to act as they are told | T |
