| I said This is a beautiful fresh rose | B |
| I said I will delight me with its scent | C |
| Will watch its lovely curve of languishment | C |
| Will watch its leaves unclose its heart unclose | B |
| I said Old Earth has put away her snows | B |
| All living things make merry to their bent | C |
| A flower is come for every flower that went | C |
| In autumn the sun glows the south wind blows | B |
| So walking in a garden of delight | C |
| I came upon one sheltered shadowed nook | D |
| Where broad leaf shadows veiled the day with night | C |
| And there lay snow unmelted by the sun | E |
| I answered Take who will the path I took | D |
| Winter nips once for all love is but one | E |
