| Nor he nor sadness nor delight | A |
| - | |
| Though I shall talk with him no more | C |

| From the sad winds about my door | C |

| - | |
| Although my life is left so dim | G |
| The morning crowns the mountain rim | G |
| Joy is not gone from summer skies | H |
| Nor innocence from children's eyes | H |
| And all of these things are part of him | G |
| - | |
| He is not banished for the showers | I |
| Yet wake this green warm earth of ours | I |
| How can the summer but be sweet | J |
| I shall not have him at my feet | J |
| And yet my feet are on the flowers | I |
