Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEFE GHGH IJIJ| What summons do I hear | A |
| The morning peal departure's knell | B |
| My eyes let fall a friendly tear | C |
| And bid this place farewell | B |

| Attending servants come | D |
| The carriage wheels like thunders roar | E |
| To bear the pensive seniors home | F |
| Here to be seen no more | E |

| Pass one more transient night | G |
| The morning sweeps the college clean | H |

| The bee which courts the flower | I |
| Must with some pain itself employ | J |
| And then fly at the day's last hour | I |
| Home to its hive with joy | J |
