| I stood at the gate of the cot | B |
| Where my darling with side glance demure | C |
| Would spy on her trim garden plot | B |
| The busy wild things chase and lure | C |
| For these with their ways were her feast | D |
| They had surety no enemy lurked | E |
| Their deftest of tricks to their least | D |
| She gathered in watch as she worked | E |

| When berries were red on her ash | F |
| The blackbird would rifle them rough | G |
| Till the ground underneath looked a gash | F |
| And her rogue grew the round of a chough | F |
| The squirrel cocked ear o'er his hoop | H |
| Up the spruce quick as eye trailing brush | F |
| She knew any tit of the troop | H |
| All as well as the snail tapping thrush | F |

| - | |
| I gazed 'twas the scene of the frame | I |
| With the face the dear life for me fled | J |
| No window a lute to my name | I |
| No watcher there plying the thread | J |
| But the blackbird hung peeking at will | K |
| The squirrel from cone hopped to cone | L |
| The thrush had a snail in his bill | K |
| And tap tapped the shell hard on a stone | L |
