Rhyme Scheme: ABCA DEAD FGHF BIBB| Dear you were as is the tree of Being | A |
| To the happy dead in heaven's bowers | B |
| Whence and what this evil spell that flings me | C |
| Forth from love with loveless eyes unseeing | A |
| - | |
| Fair you were as nymph or queen of vision | D |
| Bosomed like the succubi of dreams | E |
| All your beauty turns to sad ironic | A |
| Weariness and sorrowful derision | D |
| - | |
| Lo of what avail our spent caresses | F |
| Kisses that set the summer night aflame | G |
| Mute enormous languor without cause | H |
| What is this my autumn heart confesses | F |
| - | |
| All your breast was fragrant like the flowers | B |
| Of the grape on hills toward the south | I |
| Love is acrid now like staling asters | B |
| Sodden with the rain of autumn hours | B |
