Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGEHIJKLMNOPBQR STUPVLEWXBYZA2B2C2D2 A2| Spending abroad these varied autumn days | A |
| Their melancholy legend I deny | B |
| They keep a vanished treasure I will seek | C |
| And follow on a track of mystic hopes | D |
| While watching in thy atmosphere I see | E |
| The form of beauty changes not its soul | F |
| When with the Spring the flying feet of youth | G |
| Spurning the present as it passed and me | E |
| I thought the world a mere environment | H |
| To hold my wishes and my happiness | I |
| I have forgot that foolish vain belief | J |
| Now in my sere and yellow leaf serene | K |
| I offer Autumn all my homage now | L |
| The eddies whirling rustling in my path | M |
| Lure me like sprites and from the leaves a voice | N |
| Say not our lesson is decay we fall | O |
| And lo the naked trees in beauty lift | P |
| Their delicate tracery against the sky | B |
| On the pale verdure of the grass we spread | Q |
| A shining web of scarlet bronze and gold | R |
| When the rain comes the oaks uphold us still | S |
| The holly shines and waits the Christmas chimes | T |
| Beneath the branches of the evergreens | U |
| November's clouds without a shadow lift | P |
| The purple mountains of its airy sphere | V |
| And all my purpose waits upon them now | L |
| Day fades a rose above the darkling sea | E |
| And from the amber sky clear twilight falls | W |
| The orange woods grow black and I go forth | X |
| And as I go the noiseless airs pass by | B |
| And touch me like the petals of a flower | Y |
| The cricket chirps me in the warm dry sod | Z |
| Drowsy and I would pipe a cheery strain | A2 |
| But from the pines I hear the call of night | B2 |
| And round the quiet earth the stars wheel up | C2 |
| With me eternal and I stay beneath | D2 |
| Until I fade into the fading plain | A2 |
