Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DECE FGCG HEIJ KLMN OPQL| On such a night or such a night | A |
| Would anybody care | B |
| If such a little figure | C |
| Slipped quiet from its chair | B |

| So quiet oh how quiet | D |
| That nobody might know | E |
| But that the little figure | C |
| Rocked softer to and fro | E |

| On such a dawn or such a dawn | F |
| Would anybody sigh | G |
| That such a little figure | C |

| Or stirring house below | E |
| Or giddy bird in orchard | I |
| Or early task to do | J |

| There was a little figure plump | K |
| For every little knoll | L |
| Busy needles and spools of thread | M |
| And trudging feet from school | N |
| - | |
| Playmates and holidays and nuts | O |
| And visions vast and small | P |
| Strange that the feet so precious charged | Q |
| Should reach so small a goal | L |
