Rhyme Scheme: ABABBAAB ABAABAAB ABABBAAB C BBB| Who have loved and ceased to love forget | A |
| That ever they loved in their lives they say | B |
| Only remember the fever and fret | A |
| And the pain of Love that was all his pay | B |
| All the delight of him passes away | B |
| From hearts that hoped and from lips that met | A |
| Too late did I love you my love and yet | A |

| Too late were we 'ware of the secret net | A |
| That meshes the feet in the flowers that stray | B |

| In the dungeon of La Fausse Amistie | A |
| Help was there none in the wide world's fray | B |
| Joy was there none in the gift and the debt | A |
| Too late we knew it too long regret | A |
| I shall never forget till my dying day | B |
| - | |
| We must live our lives though the sun be set | A |
| Must meet in the masque where parts we play | B |
| Must cross in the maze of Life's minuet | A |
| Our yea is yea and our nay is nay | B |
| But while snows of winter or flowers of May | B |
| Are the sad year's shroud or coronet | A |
| In the season of rose or of violet | A |
| I shall never forget till my dying day | B |
| - | |
| ENVOY | C |
| - | |
| Queen when the clay is my coverlet | B |
| When I am dead and when you are grey | B |
| Vow where the grass of the grave is wet | B |
| 'I shall never forget till my dying day ' | - |
