| The only Ghost I ever saw | B |
| Was dressed in Mechlin so | C |
| He wore no sandal on his foot | D |
| And stepped like flakes of snow | C |
| - | |
| His Gait was soundless like the Bird | E |
| But rapid like the Roe | C |
| His fashions quaint Mosaic | F |
| Or haply Mistletoe | C |
| - | |
| His conversation seldom | G |
| His laughter like the Breeze | H |
| That dies away in Dimples | I |
| Among the pensive Trees | H |
| - | |
| Our interview was transient | J |
| Of me himself was shy | K |
| And God forbid I look behind | L |
| Since that appalling Day | M |
