Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDBDBDDEFGFD| By circumstances fed | A |
| Which divide attention | B |
| Among the living and the dead | A |
| Under the blooms of the blossoming sun | B |
| The gaze which is a tower towers | C |
| Day and night hour by hour | D |
| Critical of all and of one | B |
| Dissatisfied with every flower | D |
| With all that's been done or undone | B |
| Converting every feature | D |
| Into its own and unknown nature | D |
| So once in the drugstore | E |
| Amid all the poppy salve and ointment | F |
| I suddenly saw estranged there | G |
| Beyond all disappointment | F |
| My own face in the mirror | D |
