| The last alas of my bright days and glad | C |
| Few have been mine in this brief life below | D |
| Had come I felt my heart as tepid snow | D |
| Presage perchance of days both dark and sad | C |
| As one in nerves and pulse and spirits bad | C |
| Who of some frequent fever waits the blow | D |
| E'en so I felt for how could I foreknow | D |
| Such near end of the half joys I have had | C |
| Her beauteous eyes in heaven now bright and bless'd | E |
| With the pure light whence health and life descends | F |
| Wretched and beggar'd leaving me behind | G |
| With chaste and soul lit beams our grief address'd | E |
| Tarry ye here in peace beloved friends | F |
| Though here no more we yet shall there be join'd | H |

| Ah me the last of all my happy days | I |
| Not many happy days my years can show | D |
| Was come I felt my heart as turn'd to snow | D |
| Presage perhaps that happiness decays | I |
| E'en as the man whose shivering frame betrays | I |
| And fluttering pulse the ague's coming blow | D |
| 'Twas thus I felt but could I therefore know | D |
| How soon would end the bliss that never stays | I |
| Those eyes that now in heaven's delicious light | J |
| Drink in pure beams which life and glory rain | D |
| Just as they left mine blinded sunk in night | J |
| Seem'd thus to say sparkling unwonted bright | J |
| Awhile beloved friends in peace remain | D |
| Oh we shall yet elsewhere exchange fond looks again | D |
