| My life is full of weary days | B |
| But good things have not kept aloof | C |
| Nor wander'd into other ways | B |
| I have not lack'd thy mild reproof | C |
| Nor golden largess of thy praise | B |

| And now shake hands across the brink | D |
| Of that deep grave to which I go | E |
| Shake hands once more I cannot sink | D |
| So far far down but I shall know | E |
| Thy voice and answer from below | E |

| When in the darkness over me | F |
| The four handed mole shall scrape | G |
| Plant thou no dusky cypress tree | F |
| Nor wreathe thy cap with doleful crape | G |
| But pledge me in the flowing grape | G |
| - | |
| And when the sappy field and wood | H |
| Grow green beneath the showery gray | I |
| And rugged barks begin to bud | J |
| And thro' damp holts new flush'd with may | I |
| Ring sudden scritches of the jay | I |
| - | |
| Then let wise Nature work her will | K |
| And on my clay her darnel grow | E |
| Come only when the days are still | K |
| And at my headstone whisper low | E |
| And tell me if the woodbines blow | E |
