| Of Death I try to think like this | B |
| The Well in which they lay us | C |
| Is but the Likeness of the Brook | D |
| That menaced not to slay us | C |
| But to invite by that Dismay | E |
| Which is the Zest of sweetness | C |
| To the same Flower Hesperian | F |
| Decoying but to greet us | C |
| - | |
| I do remember when a Child | G |
| With bolder Playmates straying | H |
| To where a Brook that seemed a Sea | I |
| Withheld us by its roaring | H |
| From just the Purple Flower beyond | J |
| Until constrained to clutch it | K |
| If Doom itself were the result | L |
| The boldest leaped and clutched it | K |
