Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEG HIHI JKJK LMLM NONO PQRQ STUV WUXU| Since now the hour is come at last | A |
| When you must quit your anxious lover | B |
| Since now our dream of bliss is past | A |
| One pang my girl and all is over | B |
| - | |
| Alas that pang will be severe | C |
| Which bids us part to meet no more | D |
| Which tears me far from one so dear | C |
| Departing for a distant shore | D |
| - | |
| Well we have pass'd some happy hours | E |
| And joy will mingle with our tears | F |
| When thinking on these ancient towers | E |
| We shelter of our infant years | G |
| - | |
| Where from this Gothic casement's height | H |
| We view's the lake the park the dell | I |
| And still though tears obstruct our sight | H |
| We lingering look a last farewell | I |
| - | |
| O'er fields through which we used to run | J |
| And spend the hours in childish play | K |
| O'er shades where when our race was done | J |
| Reposing on my breast you lay | K |
| - | |
| Whilst I admiring too remiss | L |
| Forgot to scare the hovering flies | M |
| Yet envied every fly the kiss | L |
| It dared to give your slumbering eyes | M |
| - | |
| See still the little painted bark | N |
| In which I row'd you o'er the lake | O |
| See there high waving o'er the park | N |
| The elm I clamber'd for your sake | O |
| - | |
| These times are past our joys are gone | P |
| You leave me leave this happy vale | Q |
| These scenes I must retrace alone | R |
| Without thee what will they avail | Q |
| - | |
| Who can conceive who has not proved | S |
| The anguish of a last embrace | T |
| When torn from all you fondly loved | U |
| You bid a long adieu to peace | V |
| - | |
| This is the deepest of our woes | W |
| For this these tears our cheeks bedew | U |
| This is of love the final close | X |
| Oh God the fondest last adieu | U |
