Rhyme Scheme: AABAAB CCDBBD CCECCE BBFGGF| We in sorrow coldly witting | A |
| In the bleak world sitting sitting | A |
| By the forest near the mould | B |
| Heard the summer calling calling | A |
| Through the dead leaves falling falling | A |
| That her life grew faint and old | B |
| - | |
| And we took her up and bore her | C |
| With the leaves that moaned before her | C |

| Now the leaves as death grows vaster | C |
| Yellowing deeper dropping faster | C |
| All the grave wherein she lies | E |

| And we left her so but stay not | B |
| Of our tears and yet we may not | B |
| Though they coldly thickly fall | F |
| Give the dead leaves any any | G |
| For they lie so many many | G |
| That we cannot weep for all | F |
