Rhyme Scheme: A B C B DDEFEB GHIJIK LLBB| I have fled from all and none can now | A |

| My way my wanderings see | B |

| The waters widely round me flow | C |
| - | |
| I feel that I am free | B |

| Oh who can wish for sunny day | D |
| When they may look on that lovely ray | D |
| On the moon so pure so clear and fair | E |
| When no human form is nigh | F |
| When no human voice can startle the air | E |
| All is silence and secrecy | B |
| - | |
| No sound but the waters that murmuring move | G |
| No light but the shadowless orb above | H |
| But see the shadows are gathering fast | I |
| The clear bright orb is gone | J |
| Alas no beauty can ever last | I |
| That e'er I gaze upon | K |
| - | |
| The waters that sparkled so bright before | L |
| Now moan alone the gloomy shore | L |
| And all is dark as the fate will be | B |
| That spreads its cheerless path for me | B |
