Rhyme Scheme: ABCD EFEF GHG| On alien ground breathing an alien air | A |
| A Roman stood far from his ancient home | B |
| And gazing murmured | C |
| 'Ah the hills are fair But not the hills of Rome ' | D |

| Descendant of a race to Romans kin | E |
| Where the old son of Empire stood I stand | F |

| Over another shines the self same star | G |
| Another heart with nameless longing fills | H |
| Crying aloud 'How beautiful they are | G |
| But not our English hills ' | - |
