| In the retirement of this lovely spot | B |
| Sacred to friendship industry and worth | C |
| To boundless hospitality and mirth | C |
| Be ever peace and joy all care forgot | B |
| Save that which carest for a higher holier lot | B |

| And thou sweet girl whose lovely modest mien | D |
| Cheers the gay banquet with unconscious wiles | E |
| Long mayest thou grace it with affection's smiles | E |
| The vocal syren of this sylvan scene | D |
| Warbling thy sweetest notes 'midst flowers and woodlands green | D |

| Long be the social circle's grace and pride | F |
| Of parents' hopes the dearest and the best | G |
| The Dove of promise to this ark of rest | G |
| Who when around the world's fierce billows ride | F |
| Beareth the branch that speaks of the receding tide | F |
