• Let time & chance combine, combine,
• Let time & chance combine;
• The fairest love from heaven above
• That love of yours was mine,
• My dear,
• That love of yours was mine

• The past is fled & gone, & gone,
• The past is fled & gone;
• If nought but pain to me remain,
• 10I'll fare in memory on,
• My dear,
• I'll fare in memory on—

• The saddest tears must fall, must fall,
• The saddest tears must fall;
• In weal or woe in this world below,
• I love you ever & all,
• My dear,
• I love you ever & all—

• A long road full of pain, of pain,
• 20 A long road full of pain;
page: [1v]  
• One soul, one heart sworn ne'er to part,
• We ne'er can meet again,
• My dear,
• We ne'er can meet again—

• Hard fate will not allow, allow,
• Hard fate will not allow;
• We blessed were as the angels are;
• Adieu for ever now,
• My dear,
• 30Adieu for ever now—

• The wind blows east, the wind blows west,
• And the frost falls and the rain:
• A weary breast went thankful to rest,
• And must rise to toil again,
• And must rise to toil again

• The wind blows east, the wind blows west,
• And then comes good luck & bad;
