Semi-Chorus 1: (chanting) 'Tis toil on toil, and toil again.
Where! where!
Where have not my footsteps been?
And still no place reveals the secret of my search.
But hark!
There again I hear a sound. (Semi-Chorus 2 enters.)

Semi-Chorus 2: (chanting) 'Tis we, the ship-companions of your voyage.

Semi-Chorus 1: (chanting) Well how now?

Semi-Chorus 2: (chanting) We have searched the whole coast westward
from the ship.

Semi-Chorus 1: (chanting) You have found nought?

Semi-Chorus 2: (chanting) A deal of toil, but nothing more to see.
