英文傳記From Far Formosa，第一章的 ”Early years of the author ” 的第一段有如
下的原文如下，可跟上面台語詩/歌詞比較，台語詩的部分可說直接引用此文的粗斜體字
。
「FAR Formosa is dear to my heart. On that island the best of my years have
been spent. There the interest of my life has been centered. I love to look
up to its lofty peaks, down into its yawning chasms, and away out on its
surging sea. I love its dark-skinned people—Chinese, Pepohoan, and
savage--among whom I have gone these twenty-three years, preaching the gospel
of Jesus. To serve them in the gospel I would gladly, a thousand times over,
give up my life. Before what I now write has been read I will have set my
face once more westward toward the far East, and by God's good hand will have
reached again my beloved Formosan home beyond the Pacific Sea. There I hope
to spend what remains of my life, and when my day of service is over. I
should like to find a resting-place within sound of its surf and under the
shade of its waving bamboo.」
