Rhyme Scheme: AAB CCD EEF GHF IIJ KLJ IIJI bring an unaccustomed wine | A |
To lips long parching next to mine | A |
And summon them to drink | B |
- | |
Crackling with fever they essay | C |
I turn my brimming eyes away | C |
And come next hour to look | D |
- | |
The hands still hug the tardy glass | E |
The lips I would have cooled alas | E |
Are so superfluous cold | F |
- | |
I would as soon attempt to warm | G |
The bosoms where the frost has lain | H |
Ages beneath the mould | F |

Some other thirsty there may be | I |
To whom this would have pointed me | I |
Had it remained to speak | J |

And so I always bear the cup | K |
If haply mine may be the drop | L |
Some pilgrim thirst to slake | J |
- | |
If haply any say to me | I |
Unto the little unto me | I |
When I at last awake | J |
