Rhyme Scheme: ABCBCCDC CECF| I hear the oriole's always grieving voice | A |
| And the rich summer's welcome loss I hear | B |
| In the sickle's serpentine hiss | C |
| Cutting the corn's ear tightly pressed to ear | B |
| And the short skirts of the slim reapers | C |
| Fly in the wind like holiday pennants | C |
| The clash of joyful cymbals and creeping | D |
| From under dusty lashes the long glance | C |
| - | |
| I don't expect love's tender flatteries | C |
| In premonition of some dark event | E |
| But come come and see this paradise | C |
| Where together we were blessed and innocent | F |
