3. Charms like these, so bright, so lovely, Glide, alas, too soon from sight : Like the dawn so fraught with glory. Passing into gloom of night.- Chors.

Man, like nature's beauty, fading, Ceases from terrestrial strife ; Like the leaves at frost prevailing Ends the joyous spring of life. - Chorus.
