Lulled by the sound of pastoral bells	A
Rude Nature's Pilgrims did we go	B
From the dread summit of the Queen	C
Of mountains through a deep ravine	C
Where in her holy chapel dwells	A
Our Lady of the Snow	B
	-
The sky was blue the air was mild	D
Free were the streams and green the bowers	E
As if to rough assaults unknown	F
The genial spot had 'ever' shown	F
A countenance that as sweetly smiled	D
The face of summer hours	E
	-
And we were gay our hearts at ease	G
With pleasure dancing through the frame	H
We journeyed all we knew of care	I
Our path that straggled here and there	I
Of trouble but the fluttering breeze	G
Of Winter but a name	H
	-
If foresight could have rent the veil	J
Of three short days but hush no more	K
Calm is the grave and calmer none	L
Than that to which thy cares are gone	M
Thou Victim of the stormy gale	J
Asleep on ZURICH'S shore	K
	-
O GODDARD what art thou a name	H
A sunbeam followed by a shade	N
Nor more for aught that time supplies	O
The great the experienced and the wise	O
Too much from this frail earth we claim	H
And therefore are betrayed	N
	-
We met while festive mirth ran wild	D
Where from a deep lake's mighty urn	P
Forth slips like an enfranchised slave	Q
A sea green river proud to lave	Q
With current swift and undefiled	D
The towers of old LUCERNE	P
	-
We parted upon solemn ground	D
Far lifted towards the unfading sky	R
But all our thoughts were 'then' of Earth	S
That gives to common pleasures birth	S
And nothing in our hearts we found	D
That prompted even a sigh	R
	-
Fetch sympathising Powers of air	I
Fetch ye that post o'er seas and lands	T
Herbs moistened by Virginian dew	D
A most untimely grave to strew	D
Whose turf may never know the care	I
Of 'kindred' human hands	T
	-
Beloved by every gentle Muse	U
He left his Transatlantic home	V
Europe a realised romance	W
Had opened on his eager glance	W
What present bliss what golden views	U
What stores for years to come	X
	-
Though lodged within no vigorous frame	H
His soul her daily tasks renewed	D
Blithe as the lark on sun gilt wings	Y
High poised or as the wren that sings	Y
In shady places to proclaim	H
Her modest gratitude	D
	-
Not vain is sadly uttered praise	Z
The words of truth's memorial vow	A2
Are sweet as morning fragrance shed	D
From flowers 'mid GOLDAU'S ruins bred	D
As evening's fondly lingering rays	Z
On RIGHI'S silent brow	A2
	-
Lamented Youth to thy cold clay	B2
Fit obsequies the Stranger paid	D
And piety shall guard the Stone	F
Which hath not left the spot unknown	F
Where the wild waves resigned their prey	B2
And 'that' which marks thy bed	D
	-
And when thy Mother weeps for Thee	C2
Lost Youth a solitary Mother	D2
This tribute from a casual Friend	D
A not unwelcome aid may lend	D
To feed the tender luxury	C2
The rising pang to smother	D2
