Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEF| There is a lovely noise about your name | A |
| Above the shoutings of the city clear | B |
| More than a moment's merriment whose claim | A |
| Will greater grow with every mellowed year | B |
| - | |
| The people will not bear you down the street | C |
| Dancing to the strong rhythm of your words | D |
| The modern kings will throttle you to greet | C |
| The piping voice of artificial birds | D |

| But the rare lonely spirits even mine | E |
| Who love the immortal music of all days | F |
| Will see the glory of your trailing line | E |
| The bedded beauty of your haunting lays | F |
