| To kiss and to sing through and to flare | B |
| Like torch flames in the passionate air | B |
| About thee O Miranda | C |

| Eyes in a blaze eyes in a daze | D |
| Bold with love cold with amaze | D |
| Chaste thrilling eyes fast filling eyes | E |
| With daintiest tears of love's surprise | E |
| Ye draw my soul unto your blue | F |
| As warm skies draw the exhaling dew | F |
| Divine eyes of Miranda | C |
| - | |
| And if I were yon stolid stone | G |
| Thy tender arm doth lean upon | H |
| Thy touch would turn me to a heart | I |
| And I would palpitate and start | I |
| Content when thou wert gone to be | J |
| A dumb rock by the lonesome sea | J |
| Forever O Miranda | C |
