Rhyme Scheme: ABABCC DEDEFF GHGHII JKJKLL| The long cloud edged with streaming grey | A |
| Soars from the West | B |
| The red leaf mounts with it away | A |
| Showing the nest | B |
| A blot among the branches bare | C |
| There is a cry of outcasts in the air | C |
| - | |
| Swift little breezes darting chill | D |
| Pant down the lake | E |
| A crow flies from the yellow hill | D |
| And in its wake | E |
| A baffled line of labouring rooks | F |
| Steel surfaced to the light the river looks | F |
| - | |
| Pale on the panes of the old hall | G |
| Gleams the lone space | H |
| Between the sunset and the squall | G |
| And on its face | H |
| Mournfully glimmers to the last | I |
| Great oaks grow mighty minstrels in the blast | I |
| - | |
| Pale the rain rutted roadways shine | J |
| In the green light | K |
| Behind the cedar and the pine | J |
| Come thundering night | K |
| Blacken broad earth with hoards of storm | L |
| For me yon valley cottage beckons warm | L |
