| - | |
| - | |
| All things that are on earth shall wholly pass away | B |
| Except the love of God which shall live and last for aye | C |
| The forms of men shall be as they had never been | D |
| The blasted groves shall lose their fresh and tender green | E |
| The birds of the thicket shall end their pleasant song | F |
| And the nigthingale shall cease to chant the evening long | F |
| The kine of the pasture shall feel the dart that kills | A |
| And all the fair white flocks shall perish from the hills | A |
| The goat and antlered stag the wolf and the fox | A |
| The wild boar of the wood and the chamois of the rocks | A |
| And the strong and fearless bear in the trodden dust shall lie | C |
| And the dolphin of the sea and the mighty whale shall die | C |
| And realms shall be dissolved and empires be no more | G |
| And they shall bow to death who ruled from shore to shore | G |
| And the great globe itself so the holy writings tell | H |
| With the rolling firmament where the starry armies dwell | H |
| Shall melt with fervent heat they shall all pass away | B |
| Except the love of God which shall live and last for aye | C |
