| Ah bosom like the Summer sea | D |
| - | |
| A fairy creature made of dew | F |
| And moonrise and the songs of birds | B |
| And laughter like the running brook | G |
| And little soft heart broken words | B |
| - | |
| Haunted as marble in the moon | H |
| Her whiteness lies on young love's breast | I |
| And living frankincense and myrrh | E |
| Her lips that on his lips are pressed | I |
| - | |
| Her eyes are lost within his eyes | B |
| His eyes in hers are fathoms deep | J |
| Death is not stiller than these twain | A |

| Has us in keeping heart to heart | P |
| In his great book our names are writ | Q |
| The Book of Those that Never Part | P |
| - | |
| How strange it is I heard him say | B |
| How strange and yet again How strange | R |
| To meet at last and know this love | M |
| Of ours can never fade or change | R |
| - | |
| How strange to think that you are mine | S |
| Each little hair of your dear head | T |
| And no one else's in the world | U |
| How strange it is the woman said | T |
| - | |
| - | |
| I stand aside to let them pass | B |
| My Autumn face they never see | D |
| Their eyes are on the rising sun | V |
| But 'tis the setting sun for me | D |
| - | |
| For me no wild rose in the lane | A |
| But only sad autumnal flowers | B |
| And falling shadows and old sighs | B |
| And melancholy drift of hours | B |
