Violets and leaves of vine | B |
Into a frail fair wreath | C |
We gather and entwine | B |
A wreath for Love to wear | D |

All day till night is near | F |

Violets and leaves of vine | B |
For Love that lives a day | G |
We gather and entwine | B |
All day till Love is dead | H |
Till eve falls cold and gray | G |
These blossoms yours and mine | B |
Love wears upon his head | H |
Violets and leaves of vine | B |
We gather and entwine | B |

Violets and leaves of vine | B |
For Love when poor Love dies | I |
We gather and entwine | B |
This wreath that lives a day | G |
Over his pale cold eyes | I |
Kissed shut by Proserpine | B |
At set of sun we lay | G |
Violets and leaves of vine | B |
We gather and entwine | B |
