Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCD EFEF GHGHIAIA BJBJCACA KHKHLMLMNONO| How clear she shines How quietly | A |
| I lie beneath her guardian light | B |
| While heaven and earth are whispering me | A |
| Tomorrow wake but dream to night | B |
| Yes Fancy come my Fairy love | C |
| These throbbing temples softly kiss | D |
| And bend my lonely couch above | C |
| And bring me rest and bring me bliss | D |
| - | |
| The world is going dark world adieu | E |
| Grim world conceal thee till the day | F |
| The heart thou canst not all subdue | E |
| Must still resist if thou delay | F |
| - | |
| Thy love I will not will not share | G |
| Thy hatred only wakes a smile | H |
| Thy griefs may wound thy wrongs may tear | G |
| But oh thy lies shall ne'er beguile | H |
| While gazing on the stars that glow | I |
| Above me in that stormless sea | A |
| I long to hope that all the woe | I |
| Creation knows is held in thee | A |
| - | |
| And this shall be my dream to night | B |
| I'll think the heaven of glorious spheres | J |
| Is rolling on its course of light | B |
| In endless bliss through endless years | J |
| I'll think there's not one world above | C |
| Far as these straining eyes can see | A |
| Where Wisdom ever laughed at Love | C |
| Or Virtue crouched to Infamy | A |
| - | |
| Where writhing 'neath the strokes of Fate | K |
| The mangled wretch was forced to smile | H |
| To match his patience 'gainst her hate | K |
| His heart rebellious all the while | H |
| Where Pleasure still will lead to wrong | L |
| And helpless Reason warn in vain | M |
| And Truth is weak and Treachery strong | L |
| And Joy the surest path to Pain | M |
| And Peace the lethargy of Grief | N |
| And Hope a phantom of the soul | O |
| And Life a labour void and brief | N |
| And Death the despot of the whole | O |
