    I mean to make a conclusion concerning this valley so fair
    Likewise this hall, this grand mansion
    Its charming green bower so rare
    I will bid farewell to this structure
    Where the blackbird and cuckoo do call
    Each night I rest on my pillow
    I think on sweet Gracefield's grand hall
