Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEF GHGI JKJL BLBLThere was a time I need not name | A |
Since it will ne'er forgotten be | B |
When all our feelings were the same | A |
As still my soul hath been to thee | B |

And from that hour when first thy tongue | C |
Confess'd a love which equall'd mine | D |
Though many a grief my heart hath wrung | C |
Unknown and thus unfelt by thine | D |

None none hath sunk so deep as this | E |
To think how all that love hath flown | F |

And yet my heart some solace knew | G |
When late I heard thy lips declare | H |
In accents once imagined true | G |
Remembrance of the days that were | I |

Though thou wilt never love again | K |

Nor longer shall my soul repine | L |
Whate'er thou art or e'er shall be | B |
Thou hast been dearly solely mine | L |
