Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDED FGFG FHFH IJIB| Hope was but a timid friend | A |
| She sat without the grated den | B |
| Watching how my fate would tend | A |
| Even as selfish hearted men | B |

| She was cruel in her fear | C |
| Through the bars one dreary day | D |
| I looked out to see her there | E |
| And she turned her face away | D |

| Balm to all my frenzied pain | J |
| Stretched her wings and soared to heaven | I |
| Went and ne'er returned again | B |
