 1. 



I shall go to see, I shall go to see, 



The footprints I have made 1 shall go to see. 



I shall go to see, I shall go to see, 

 The footprints that lie in even rows. 



3. 



I shall go to see, I shall go to see, 

 The soil broken through the footprints. 



I shall go to see, I shall go to see, 



The stalks that stand with spreading leaves.
