Rhyme Scheme: ABCD EFGF AHIH JKLM| The rose did caper on her cheek | A |
| Her bodice rose and fell | B |
| Her pretty speech like drunken men | C |
| Did stagger pitiful | D |

| Her fingers fumbled at her work | E |
| Her needle would not go | F |
| What ailed so smart a little maid | G |

| A vest that like the bodice danced | J |
| To the immortal tune | K |
| Till those two troubled little clocks | L |
| Ticked softly into one | M |
