Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEF GHGH IBIB| Two loves came up a long wide aisle | A |
| And knelt at a low white gate | B |
| One tender and true with the shyest smile | A |
| One strong true and elate | B |

| Two lips spoke in a firm true way | C |
| And two lips answered soft and low | D |
| In one true hand such a little hand lay | C |
| Fluttering frail as a flake of snow | D |

| One stately head bent humbly there | E |
| Stilled were the throbbings of human love | F |
| One head drooped down like a lily fair | E |
| Two prayers went wing to wing above | F |

| God blest them both in the holy place | G |
| A long brief moment the rite was done | H |
| On the human love fell the heavenly grace | G |
| Making two hearts forever one | H |

| Between two lengthening rows of smiles | I |
| One sweetly shy one proud elate | B |
| Two loves passed down the long wide aisles | I |
| Will they ever forget the low white gate | B |
