Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DECE FGCG HICI CBCB JBCB

I thought my heart was death chilledA
I thought its fires were coldB
But the new love the new loveC
It warmeth like the oldB
-
I thought its rooms were shadowedD
With the gloom of endless nightE
But the new love the new loveC
It fills them full of lightE
-
I thought the chambers emptyF
And proclaimed it unto menG
But the new love the new loveC
It peoples them againG
-
I thought its halls were silentH
And hushed the whole day longI
But the new love the new loveC
It fills them full of songI
-
Then here is to the new loveC
Let who will sing the oldB
The new love the new loveC
'Tis more than fame or goldB
-
For it gives us joy for sorrowJ
And it gives us warmth for coldB
Oh the new love the new loveC
'Tis better than the oldB
