XLII + 

And so my noon hath come! If so, + 

I must resign myself, in sooth; + 

Yet let us part in friendship, O + 

My frivolous and jolly youth. + 

I thank thee for thy joyfulness, + 

Love’s tender transports and distress, + 

For riot, frolics, mighty feeds, + 

And all that from thy hand proceeds⁠— + 

I thank thee. In thy company, + 

With tumult or contentment still + 

Of thy delights I drank my fill, + 

Enough! with tranquil spirit I + 

Commence a new career in life + 

And rest from bygone days of strife. + 
