Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHIJKLMN| Herbert broke our engagement of eight years | A |
| When Annabelle returned to the village From the | B |
| Seminary ah me | C |
| If I had let my love for him alone | D |
| It might have grown into a beautiful sorrow | E |
| Who knows filling my life with healing fragrance | F |
| But I tortured it I poisoned it | G |

| Do not let the will play gardener to your soul | L |
| Unless you are sure | M |
| It is wiser than your soul's nature | N |
