| Is thy latest prospect gone | B |
| Must my task be thus relinquisht | A |
| Ere my noble end is won | C |
| - | |
| Must I die and be remember'd | A |
| Never more ah never more | D |
| As the clown who laught and slumber'd | A |
| Out his passing mortal hour | E |

| That the noblest soul had bow'd | A |
| Stoop to unearn'd degradations | H |
| But to die as die the crowd | A |
| - | |
| Whither wilt thou wander whither | E |
| From thy quest my soul refrain | I |
| Sure the God who sent me hither | E |
| Had sonic purpose in my pain | I |
