| Keep love for youth and violets for the spring | B |
| Of if these bloom when worn out autumn grieves | C |
| Let them lie hid in double shade of leaves | C |
| Their own and others dropped down withering | B |
| For violets suit when home birds build and sing | B |
| Not when the outbound bird a passage cleaves | C |
| Not with dry stubble of mown harvest sheaves | C |
| But when the green world buds to blossoming | B |
| Keep violets for the spring and love for youth | D |
| Love that should dwell with beauty mirth and hope | E |
| Or if a later sadder love be born | F |
| Let this not look for grace beyond its scope | E |
| But give itself nor plead for answering truth | D |
| A grateful Ruth tho' gleaning scanty corn | F |
