| 'Twas just this time last year I died | B |
| I know I heard the Corn | C |
| When I was carried by the Farms mdash | D |
| It had the Tassels on mdash | D |
| - | |
| I thought how yellow it would look mdash | D |
| When Richard went to mill mdash | D |
| And then I wanted to get out | E |
| But something held my will | F |
| - | |
| I thought just how Red mdash Apples wedged | G |
| The Stubble's joints between mdash | D |
| And the Carts stooping round the fields | H |
| To take the Pumpkins in mdash | D |
| - | |
| I wondered which would miss me least | I |
| And when Thanksgiving came | J |
| If Father'd multiply the plates mdash | D |
| To make an even Sum mdash | D |
| - | |
| And would it blur the Christmas glee | K |
| My Stocking hang too high | L |
| For any Santa Claus to reach | D |
| The Altitude of me mdash | D |
| - | |
| But this sort grieved myself | M |
| And so I thought the other way | N |
| How just this time some perfect year mdash | D |
| Themself should come to me mdash | D |
