D. o. We* are* in* Thy* sight* | but as the worms of the DUST!

H. o. May* the* grace* of* God* | abide with you for EVER.

A. o. And* let* the* triple* rainbow* rest* | o'er all the mountain TOPS.

D. e. Here* let* the* tumults* of* passion* | forever CEASE!

H. e. Spread* wide a ROUND the heaven-breathing calm!

A. e. Heaven* | opened WIDE her ever-during gates.

B. H. V.

H. f. HENCE*, hideous spectre!

A. f. AVERT*, O God, the frown of Thy indignation!

H. o. Far* from* OUR hearts be so inhuman a feeling.
