| Very like to a dream | B |
| Doth the time to me seem | B |
| When with thee a young girl by my side | C |
| One of summer's fine days | D |
| In a one pony chaise | D |
| We commenced in the morning our ride | C |
| - | |
| By the pine grove and nook | E |
| Over bridge and through brook | E |
| Quite at random we drove without fear | F |
| While the birds of the grove | G |
| In sweet harmony strove | G |
| By their concert of music to cheer | F |
| With none to molest us | H |
| No home cares to press us | H |
| Farther onward and onward we roam | I |
| But at length the skies lower | J |
| And unhoped for the shower | J |
| Finds us many miles distant from home | I |
| - | |
| Even so is life's day | K |
| Like a fair morn in May | K |
| With hope's bright bow of promise it cheers | L |
| But long before night | M |
| The sun that so bright | M |
| In the morning had shone disappears | L |
| - | |
| Do not then I entreat | M |
| My beloved Margaret | M |
| Be content with this world for thy portion | N |
| Let ambition soar higher | J |
| E'en above earth aspire | O |
| And to God give thy heart's true devotion | N |
