There's something quieter than sleep | B |
Within this inner room | C |
It wears a sprig upon its breast | D |
And will not tell its name | E |

Some touch it and some kiss it | F |
Some chafe its idle hand | G |
It has a simple gravity | H |
I do not understand | G |

I would not weep if I were they | I |
How rude in one to sob | J |
Might scare the quiet fairy | H |
Back to her native wood | K |

While simple hearted neighbors | L |
Chat of the Early dead | M |
We prone to periphrasis | L |
Remark that Birds have fled | M |
