Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDED FGFGHDED IJKJLDED| So now I take a bitter road | A |
| Whereon no bourne I see | B |

| That once I bore with glee | B |
| For me no more by sea or shore | C |
| Adventure's star shall burn | D |
| As I forsake wild ways to take | E |
| The Trail of No Return | D |

| Such paths of peril I have trod | F |
| In sun and shade they lay | G |
| And some went wistfully to God | F |
| And some the devil's way | G |

| Though long my life's sojourn | D |
| A dawn will break when I must take | E |
| The Trail of No Return | D |
| - | |
| Farewell to friends good bye to foes | I |
| Adieu to smile or frown | J |
| My voyaging is nigh its close | K |
| And dark is drifting down | J |
| With weary feet my way I beat | L |
| Yet holy light discern | D |
| So let me take without heart break | E |
| The Trail of No Return | D |
