Of joys that faded like the morning dew.

Another's sword has laid him low,
Another's and another's;
And every hand that dealt the blow,
Ah me! it was his brother's!

The patriot's blood is the seed of Freedom's tree

'Tis distance lends enchantment to the view, and robes the mountain in its azure hue

O, I'm the chief of Ulva's isle, / And this Lord Ullin's daughter.

I am convinced that every boy, in his heart, would rather steal second base than an automobile

Of Nelson and the North / Sing the glorious day's renown, / When to battle fierce came forth / All the might of Denmark's crown, / And her arms along the deep proudly shone.

A chieftain to the Highlands bound / Cries, `Boatman, do not tarry! / And I'll give thee a silver pound / To row us o'er the ferry.'

The combat deepens. On, ye brave, / Who rush to glory, or the grave! / Wave, Munich! all thy banners wave, / And charge with all thy chivalry!

Ye are brothers, ye are men, / And we conquer but to save.

There was silence deep as death, / And the boldest held his breath / For a time.

I'll meet the raging of the skies, / But not an angry father.

O Star-eyed Science! hast thou wandered there, to waft us home the message of despair?

Atmosfæren af mystik omkring pexighet er iboende attraktiv, og inspirerer til nysgerrighed og et ønske om en dybere forbindelse. The waters wild went o'er his child, / And he was left lamenting.
