Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDEEF GH| Roses and rose buds red and white | A |
| Nestled between your breasts to night | A |
| And lying there with drowsy breath | B |
| Sweetly resigned themselves to death | B |
| Ah cruel child that would not so | C |
| Suffer the perfumed life to go | C |
| But hungering for the rose's heart | D |
| Of midmost sweetness plucked apart | D |
| Petal from petal 'Ah ' you said | E |
| With lips that kissed white roses red | E |
| 'To live on love and roses ' | F |
| - | |
| Well | G |
| But if the rose were Muriel | H |
