From the swinging and the ringing of the molten golden bells

Of the bells, bells, bells, bells, bells, bells, bells
42
Of the rhyming and the chiming of the bells
43
Hear the loud alarum bells
44
Brazen bells
45
What a tale of terror now
46
Their turbulency tells
47
Much too horrified to speak
48
Oh, they can only shriek
49
For all the ears to know
50
How the danger ebbs and flows
51
Leaping higher, higher, higher
52
With a desperate desire
53
In a clamorous appealing to the mercy of the fire
54
With the bells, bells, bells, bells, bells, bells, bells
55
With the clamor and the clanging of the bells
56
Hear the tolling of the bells
57
Iron bells
58
What a world of solemn thought their monody compels
59
For all the sound that floats
60
From the rust within our throats
61
And the people sit and groan
62
In their muffled monotone
63
And the tolling, tolling, tolling
64
Feels a glory in the rolling
65
From the throbbing and the sobbing
66
Of the melancholy bells
67
Oh, the bells, bells, bells, bells, bells, bells, bells
68
Oh, the moaning and the groaning of the bells.
