| Ne'er shall I see again with eyes unwet | A |
| Or with the sure powers of a tranquil mind | A |
| Those characters where Love so brightly shined | A |
| And his own hand affection seem'd to set | A |
| Spirit amid earth's strifes unconquer'd yet | A |
| Breathing such sweets from heaven which now has shrined | A |
| As once more to my wandering verse has join'd | A |
| The style which Death had led me to forget | A |
| Another work than my young leaves more bright | A |
| I thought to show what envying evil star | C |
| Snatch'd thee my noble treasure thus from me | D |
| So soon who hides thee from my fond heart's sight | A |
| And from thy praise my loving tongue would bar | C |
| My soul has rest sweet sigh alone in thee | D |

| Or tranquil soul those characters of thine | G |
| In which affection doth so brightly shine | G |
| And charity's own hand I can descry | E |
| Blest soul that could this earthly strife defy | F |
| Thy sweets instilling from thy home divine | G |
| Thou wakest in me the tone which once was mine | G |
