| Now that these wings to speed my wish ascend | A |
| The more I feel vast air beneath my feet | A |
| The more toward boundless air on pinions fleet | A |
| Spurning the earth soaring to heaven I tend | A |
| Nor makes them stoop their flight the direful end | A |
| Of Daedal's son but upward still they beat | A |
| What life the while with my life can compete | A |
| Though dead to earth at last I shall descend | A |
| My own heart's voice in the void air I hear | B |
| Where wilt thou bear me O rash man Recall | C |
| Thy daring will This boldness waits on fear | D |
| Dread not I answer that tremendous fall | C |
| Strike through the clouds and smile when death is near | D |
| If death so glorious be our doom at all | C |
