Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDCD EFEGHIHIHIFrom this hour the pledge is given | A |
From this hour my soul is thine | B |
Come what will from earth of heaven | A |
Weal or woe thy fate be mine | B |
When the proud and great stood by thee | C |
None dared thy rights to spurn | D |
And if now they're false and fly thee | C |
Shall I too falsely turn | D |
No whate'er the fire that try thee | C |
In the same this heart shall burn | D |
- | |
Though the sea where thou embarkest | E |
Offers now no friendly shore | F |
Light may come where all looks darkest | E |
Hope hath life when life seems o'er | G |
And of those past ages dreaming | H |
When glory deck'd thy brow | I |
Oft I fondly think though seeming | H |
So fallen and clouded now | I |
Thou'lt again break forth all beaming | H |
None so bright so blest as thou | I |
