Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEDE FGHG CBCB| Farewell Farewell the voice you hear | A |
| Has left its last soft tone with you | B |
| Its next must join the seaward cheer | C |
| And shout among the shouting crew | B |
| - | |
| The accents which I scarce could form | D |
| Beneath your frown's controlling check | E |
| Must give the word above the storm | D |
| To cut the mast and clear the wreck | E |

| The timid eye I dared not raise | F |
| The hand that shook when press'd to thine | G |
| Must point the guns upon the chase | H |
| Must bid the deadly cutlass shine | G |
| - | |
| To all I love or hope or fear | C |
| Honour or own a long adieu | B |
| To all that life has soft and dear | C |
| Farewell save memory of you | B |
