| Before the rathe song sparrow sings | F |
| Among the hawtrees in the lane | H |
| And to the wind the locust flings | F |
| Its early clusters fresh with rain | H |
| Beyond the morning star that swings | F |
| Its rose of fire above the spire | I |
| Between the morning's watchet wings | F |
| A voice that rings o'er brooks and boughs | F |
| Arouse arouse | F |

| Before the first brown owlet cries | F |
| Among the grape vines on the hill | J |
| And in the dam with half shut eyes | F |
| The lilies rock above the mill | J |
| Beyond the oblong moon that flies | F |
| Its pearly flower above the tower | K |
| Between the twilight's primrose skies | F |
| A voice that sighs from east to west | L |
| To rest to rest | L |
