Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDCDCD| Belov d my Belov d when I think | A |
| That thou wast in the world a year ago | B |
| What time I sat alone here in the snow | B |
| And saw no footprint heard the silence sink | A |
| No moment at thy voice but link by link | A |
| Went counting all my chains as if that so | B |
| They never could fall off at any blow | B |
| Struck by thy possible hand why thus I drink | A |
| Of life's great cup of wonder Wonderful | C |
| Never to feel thee thrill the day or night | D |
| With personal act or speech nor ever cull | C |
| Some prescience of thee with the blossoms white | D |
| Thou sawest growing Atheists are as dull | C |
| Who cannot guess God's presence out of sight | D |
