| The faithful helm commands the keel | B |
| From port to port fair breezes blow | A |
| But the ship must sail the convex sea | C |
| Nor may she straighter go | A |

| So man to man in fair accord | D |
| On thought and will the winds may wait | E |
| But the world will bend the passing word | F |
| Though its shortest course be straight | E |

| From soul to soul the shortest line | G |
| At best will bended be | C |
| The ship that holds the straightest course | H |
| Still sails the convex sea | C |
