| The myriad marvels of the earth | A |
| And bids us look with wandering eyes | B |
| On all that here about us lies | B |
| Has gone behind the hill | C |
| Do you O peaceful evening star | D |
| Gaze on the dusk in which we are | D |

| Depart and leave us to the quest | I |
| Of quiet solitude and rest | I |
| And knowledge that the plotting brain | J |
| With all its science cannot gain | J |
| But from the soul of Night | H |
