Rhyme Scheme: ABBCDD EBBEBB FGGFHH IGGIJJ KGGKLL MGGMBB NGGNOO PGGPQQ| Where the violet shadows brood | A |
| Under cottonwoods and beeches | B |
| Through whose leaves the restless reaches | B |
| Of the river glance I've stood | C |
| While the red bird and the thrush | D |
| Set to song the morning hush | D |
| - | |
| There when woodland hills encroach | E |
| On the shadowy winding waters | B |
| And the bluets April's daughters | B |
| At the darling Spring's approach | E |
| Star their myriads through the trees | B |
| All the land is one with peace | B |
| - | |
| Under some imposing cliff | F |
| That with bush and tree and boulder | G |
| Thrusts a gray gigantic shoulder | G |
| O'er the stream I've oared a skiff | F |
| While great clouds of berg white hue | H |
| Lounged along the noonday blue | H |
| - | |
| There when harvest heights impend | I |
| Over shores of rippling summer | G |
| And to greet the fair new comer | G |
| June the wildrose thickets bend | I |
| In a million blossoms dressed | J |
| All the land is one with rest | J |
| - | |
| On some rock where gaunt the oak | K |
| Reddens and the sombre cedar | G |
| Darkens like a sachem leader | G |
| I have lain and watched the smoke | K |
| Of the steamboat far away | L |
| Trailed athwart the dying day | L |
| - | |
| There when margin waves reflect | M |
| Autumn colors gay and sober | G |
| And the Indian girl October | G |
| Wampum like in berries decked | M |
| Sits beside the leaf strewn streams | B |
| All the land is one with dreams | B |
| - | |
| Through the bottoms where out tossed | N |
| By the wind's wild hands ashiver | G |
| Lean the willows o'er the river | G |
| I have walked in sleet and frost | N |
| While beneath the cold round moon | O |
| Frozen gleamed the long lagoon | O |
| - | |
| There when leafless woods uplift | P |
| Spectral arms the storm blasts splinter | G |
| And the hoary trapper Winter | G |
| Builds his camp of ice and drift | P |
| With his snow pelts furred and shod | Q |
| All the land is one with God | Q |
