Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEFE GHGH IHJH AKLK FHGH| In midnights of November | A |
| When Dead Man's Fair is nigh | B |
| And danger in the valley | C |
| And anger in the sky | B |
| - | |
| Around the huddling homesteads | D |
| The leafless timber roars | E |
| And the dead call the dying | F |
| And finger at the doors | E |
| - | |
| Oh yonder faltering fingers | G |
| Are hands I used to hold | H |
| Their false companion drowses | G |
| And leaves them in the cold | H |
| - | |
| Oh to the bed of ocean | I |
| To Africk and to Ind | H |
| I will arise and follow | J |
| Along the rainy wind | H |
| - | |
| The night goes out and under | A |
| With all its train forlorn | K |
| Hues in the east assemble | L |
| And cocks crow up the morn | K |
| - | |
| The living are the living | F |
| And dead the dead will stay | H |
| And I will sort with comrades | G |
| That face the beam of day | H |
