| With his furry coat and his gauzy wing | B |

| I made that vow | A |

| Whose crimson roses burst his frost | J |
| Ships tempest tossed | J |
| Will find a harbour in some bay | I |
| And so we may | I |
| - | |
| And there is nothing left to do | K |
| But to kiss once again and part | L |
| Nay there is nothing we should rue | K |
| I have my beauty you your Art | L |
| Nay do not start | L |
| One world was not enough for two | K |
| Like me and you | K |
