| Through the clerestories high of the heaven the firmament's halls | D |
| Under whose sapphirine walls | D |
| June hesperian June | B |
| Robed in divinity wanders Daily and nightly | C |
| The turquoise touch of her robe that the violets star | E |
| The silvery fall of her feet that lilies are | E |
| Fill the land with languorous light and perfume | F |
| Is it the melody mute of burgeoning leaf and of bloom | F |
| The music of Nature that silently shapes in the gloom | F |
| Immaterial hosts | G |
| Of spirits that have the flowers and leaves in their keep | H |
| Whom I hear whom I hear | I |
| With their sighs of silver and pearl | J |
| Invisible ghosts | G |
| Each sigh a shadowy girl | J |

| Lo 'tis her songs that appear appear | L |
| In forest and field on hill land and lea | C |

| - | |
| Behold how it sprouts from the grass and blossoms from flower and tree | C |
| In waves of diaphanous moonlight and mist | M |
| In fugue upon fugue of gold and of amethyst | M |
| Around me above me it spirals now slower now faster | K |
| Like symphonies born of the thought of a musical master | K |
| O music of Earth O God who the music inspired | N |
| Let me breathe of the life of thy breath | O |
| And so be fulfilled and attired | P |
| In resurrection triumphant o'er time and o'er death | O |
