Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEFE GHIHJEKE

'Twas in the flush of summer timeA
Some twenty years or moreB
When Ernest lost his way and crossedC
The threshold of our doorB
I'll ne'er forget his locks of jetD
His brow of Alpine snowE
His manly grace of form and faceF
Some twenty years agoE
-
The hand he asked I freely gaveG
Mine was a happy lotH
In all my pride to be his brideI
Within my father's cotH
The faith he spoke he never brokeJ
His faithful heart I knowE
And well I vow I love him nowK
As twenty years agoE
