Rhyme Scheme: ABABBCBC BDBD EFGF FHFH BDBD IBIB JKJK B| Though bleak these woods and damp the ground | A |
| With fallen leaves so thickly strown | B |
| And cold the wind that wanders round | A |
| With wild and melancholy moan | B |
| There is a friendly roof I know | B |
| Might shield me from the wintry blast | C |
| There is a fire whose ruddy glow | B |
| Will cheer me for my wanderings past | C |
| - | |
| And so though still where'er I go | B |
| Cold stranger glances meet my eye | D |
| Though when my spirit sinks in woe | B |
| Unheeded swells the unbidden sigh | D |
| - | |
| Though solitude endured too long | E |
| Bids youthful joys too soon decay | F |
| Makes mirth a stranger to my tongue | G |
| And overclouds my noon of day | F |
| - | |
| When kindly thoughts that would have way | F |
| Flow back discouraged to my breast | H |
| I know there is though far away | F |
| A home where heart and soul may rest | H |
| - | |
| Warm hands are there that clasped in mine | B |
| The warmer heart will not belie | D |
| While mirth and truth and friendship shine | B |
| In smiling lip and earnest eye | D |
| - | |
| The ice that gathers round my heart | I |
| May there be thawed and sweetly then | B |
| The joys of youth that now depart | I |
| Will come to cheer my soul again | B |
| - | |
| Though far I roam that thought shall be | J |
| My hope my comfort everywhere | K |
| While such a home remains to me | J |
| My heart shall never know despair | K |

| Acton | B |
