Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEFG HIJK LMJN OPQR| Under cool trees the City tombs | A |
| extend and nearer lie | B |
| stones above Blake's and Bunyan's bones | C |
| to Vivian's working days than I | B |
| - | |
| Since he is gentle wild and good | D |
| as you were peaceable Shades | E |
| there may he go within your care | F |
| as in my heart his love resides | G |
| - | |
| Such a care as held unharmed | H |
| the tree within the fire | I |
| spread wings like those that led | J |
| Tobias in the dangerous shire | K |
| - | |
| And if I fear his death too much | L |
| let me not learn more faith | M |
| by sad trial of what I dread | J |
| nor grieve him by my own death | N |
| - | |
| For our faith is one which may | O |
| convert but not console | P |
| we shall not except by our own will | Q |
| part for ever in the gape of hell | R |
