Rhyme Scheme: ABABAB ABABAB ABABAB| She walks the lady of my delight | A |
| A shepherdess of sheep | B |
| Her flocks are thoughts She keeps them white | A |
| She keeps them from the steep | B |
| She feeds them on the fragrant height | A |
| And folds them in for sleep | B |
| - | |
| She roams maternal hills and bright | A |
| Dark valleys safe and deep | B |
| Into that tender breast at night | A |
| The chastest stars may peep | B |
| She walks the lady of my delight | A |
| A shepherdess of sheep | B |
| - | |
| She holds her little thoughts in sight | A |
| Though gay they run and leap | B |
| She is so circumspect and right | A |
| She has her soul to keep | B |
| She walks the lady of my delight | A |
| A shepherdess of sheep | B |
