| Could you not see we were alone | C |
| Where God's hand paints the world with daisies | D |

| You spoke of Paris and of Rome | E |

| You talked about the aims of Art | F |

| For when I found you had not heard | H |
| The song nor seen the dewy clover | I |
| I cared no more to find the word | H |
| Should make you hear and see a lover | I |
