Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDBEB FGHGIGJG KLMLJGNG OPQPRSTS| I would not ask thee back fair May | A |
| With all your bright eyed flowers | B |
| Nor would I welcome April days | C |
| With all their laughing showers | B |
| For each bright season of the year | D |
| Can claim its own sweet pleasures | B |
| And we must take them as they come | E |
| These gladly given treasures | B |

| There's music in the rain that falls | F |
| In bright October weather | G |

| Of gold encircled splendor | G |
| A dreamy spell is in the air | J |
| Of beauty sad and tender | G |
| - | |
| The winter hath not wooed her yet | K |
| This fair October maiden | L |
| And she is free to wander still | M |
| With fruits and flowers laden | L |
| She shakes the dew drops from her hair | J |
| In one swift golden shower | G |
| And all the woods are filled with light | N |
| That gilds each autumn flower | G |
| - | |
| But soon the frost king's icy breath | O |
| Will chill her laughing beauty | P |
| And she will waken in the dusk | Q |
| Unto a sterner duty | P |
| Ah life is full of days like these | R |
| Of days too bright to perish | S |
| Yet death like winter claims too oft | T |
| The things we most would cherish | S |
