Rhyme Scheme: ABBA CCCC DEFD GHHG| The feverish room and that white bed | A |
| The tumbled skirts upon a chair | B |
| The novel flung half open where | B |
| Hat hair pins puffs and paints are spread | A |

| The mirror that has sucked your face | C |
| Into its secret deep of deeps | C |
| And there mysteriously keeps | C |
| Forgotten memories of grace | C |

| Your slant eyes strangely watching me | E |
| And I who watch you drowsily | F |
| With eyes that having slept not ache | D |

| This need one dread nay dare one hope | G |
| Will rise a ghost of memory if | H |
| Ever again my handkerchief | H |
| Is scented with White Heliotrope | G |
