Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDEFEG HHIIGGJJKGLG| I never see a young hand hold | A |
| The starry bunch of white and gold | A |
| But something warm and fresh will start | B |
| About the region of my heart | B |
| My smile expires into a sigh | C |
| I feel a struggling in my eye | C |
| 'Twixt humid drop and sparkling ray | D |
| Till rolling tears have won their way | D |
| For soul and brain will travel back | E |
| Through memory's chequer'd mazes | F |
| To days when I but trod life's track | E |
| For buttercups and daisies | G |
| - | |
| There seems a bright and fairy spell | H |
| About there very names to dwell | H |
| And though old Time has mark'd my brow | I |
| With care and thought I love them now | I |
| Smile if you will but some heartstrings | G |
| Are closest link'd to simplest things | G |
| And these wild flowers will hold mine fast | J |
| Till love and life and all be past | J |
| And then the only wish I have | K |
| Is that the one who raises | G |
| The turf sod o'er me plant my grave | L |
| With buttercups and daisies | G |
