| Hall of my Sires he said | D |
| How long with weary tread | D |
| Must I toil on | E |
| Each eve as thus I wander | F |
| Thy towers seem rising yonder | F |
| But scarce hath daylight shone | G |
| When like a dream thou'rt gone | H |

| So went the Pilgrim still | I |
| Down dale and over hill | I |
| Day after day | J |
| That glimpse of home so cheering | K |
| At twilight still appearing | K |
| But still with morning's ray | J |
| Melting like mist away | J |

| Where rests the Pilgrim now | L |
| Here by this cypress bough | L |
| Closed his career | M |
| That dream of fancy's weaving | K |
| No more his steps deceiving | K |
| Alike past hope and fear | M |
| The Pilgrim's home is here | N |
