Rhyme Scheme: AABCCCB DDEDDDE CCFCCC DDCCCCC| Behind the curtain | A |
| With glance uncertain | A |
| Peeps pet Florence as I gaily ride | B |
| Half demurely | C |
| But though purely | C |
| Most most surely | C |
| Wishing she were riding riding by my side | B |
| - | |
| In leafy alleys | D |
| Where sunlight dallies | D |
| Pleasant were it bonnie to be riding rein by rein | E |
| And where summer tosses | D |
| All about in bosses | D |
| Velvet verdant mosses | D |
| Still more pleasant surely to dismount us and remain | E |
| - | |
| O thou Beauty | C |
| Hanging ripe and fruity | C |
| At the muslined lattice in the drooping eve | F |
| Whisper from the casement | C |
| If that blushing face meant | C |
| At the cottage basement | C |
| Gallant halt I come to thee I come to never leave '' | - |
| - | |
| But if those coy lashes | D |
| Stir for whoso dashes | D |
| Past the scented window in the fading light | C |
| Close the lattice sweetest | C |
| Darkness were discreetest | C |
| And with bridle fleetest | C |
| I will gallop onwards unattended through the Night | C |
