| The saddest noise the sweetest noise | B |
| The maddest noise that grows | C |
| The birds they make it in the spring | D |
| At night's delicious close | E |
| - | |
| Between the March and April line | F |
| That magical frontier | G |
| Beyond which summer hesitates | H |
| Almost too heavenly near | G |
| - | |
| It makes us think of all the dead | I |
| That sauntered with us here | J |
| By separation's sorcery | K |
| Made cruelly more dear | G |
| - | |
| It makes us think of what we had | L |
| And what we now deplore | M |
| We almost wish those siren throats | N |
| Would go and sing no more | M |
| - | |
| An ear can break a human heart | O |
| As quickly as a spear | G |
| We wish the ear had not a heart | O |
| So dangerously near | G |
