Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEFG HIJK LMHM NOJP HHQH RSKS HATA UKHV HNHW| The snow will dust the roadway | A |
| And load the roofs still more | B |
| I'll stretch my legs a little | C |
| You're there outside the door | B |
| - | |
| Autumn not winter coat | D |
| Hat none galoshes none | E |
| You struggle with excitement | F |
| Out there all on your own | G |
| - | |
| Far far into the darkness | H |
| Fences and trees withdraw | I |
| You stand there on the corner | J |
| Under the falling snow | K |
| - | |
| The water trickles down from | L |
| The kerchief that you wear | M |
| Into your sleeves while dewdrops | H |
| Shine sparkling in your hair | M |
| - | |
| And now illumined by | N |
| A single strand of light | O |
| Are features kerchief figure | J |
| And coat of autumn cut | P |
| - | |
| There's wet snow on your lashes | H |
| And in your eyes distress | H |
| And your external image | Q |
| Is all all of apiece | H |
| - | |
| As if an iron point | R |
| With truly consummate art | S |
| Dipped into antimony | K |
| Had scribed you on my heart | S |
| - | |
| Those modest humble features | H |
| Are in it now to stay | A |
| And if the world's cruel hearted | T |
| That's merely by the way | A |
| - | |
| And therefore it is doubled | U |
| All this night in snow | K |
| To draw frontiers between us | H |
| Is more than I can do | V |
| - | |
| But who are we and whence | H |
| If of those years gone by | N |
| Scandal alone remains | H |
| And we have ceased to be | W |
