Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEFE GHIJCKEK LMNMOPQR STUTSVWV| O tomb of the past | A |
| Where buried hopes lie | B |
| In my visions I see | C |
| Thy phantoms pass by | B |
| A form long departed | D |
| Before me appears | E |
| A sweet voice long silent | F |
| Again greets my ears | E |
| - | |
| Fond memory dwells | G |
| On the things that have been | H |
| And my eyes calmly gaze | I |
| On a long vanished scene | J |
| A scene such as memory | C |
| Stores deep in the breast | K |
| Which only appears | E |
| In a season of rest | K |
| - | |
| Once more we wander | L |
| Her fair hand in mine | M |
| Once more her promise | N |
| I'll ever be thine | M |
| Once more the parting | O |
| The shroud and the pall | P |
| The sods' hollow thump | Q |
| As they coffinward fall | R |
| - | |
| The reverie ends | S |
| All the fancies have flown | T |
| And my sad lonely heart | U |
| Now seems doubly alone | T |
| As the Ivy whose tendrils | S |
| Reach longingly out | V |
| Yet finds not an oak | W |
| To entwine them about | V |
