| I pant for the music which is divine | B |
| My heart in its thirst is a dying flower | C |
| Pour forth the sound like enchanted wine | B |
| Loosen the notes in a silver shower | C |
| Like a herbless plain for the gentle rain | D |
| I gasp I faint till they wake again | E |

| Let me drink of the spirit of that sweet sound | F |
| More oh more I am thirsting yet | G |
| It loosens the serpent which care has bound | F |
| Upon my heart to stifle it | H |
| The dissolving strain through every vein | D |
| Passes into my heart and brain | D |

| As the scent of a violet withered up | I |
| Which grew by the brink of a silver lake | J |
| When the hot noon has drained its dewy cup | I |
| And mist there was none its thirst to slake | J |
| And the violet lay dead while the odour flew | K |
| On the wings of the wind o'er the waters blue | K |
| - | |
| - | |
| As one who drinks from a charmed cup | I |
| Of foaming and sparkling and murmuring wine | B |
| Whom a mighty Enchantress filling up | I |
| Invites to love with her kiss divine | B |
