Rhyme Scheme: AABBC AABD AABBAD EFFFor old sake's sake 'Twere hard to choose | A |
Words fitter for an old world Muse | A |
Than these that in their cadence bring | B |
Faint fragrance of the posy ring | B |
And charms that rustic lovers use | C |
- | |
The long day lengthens and we lose | A |
The first pale flush the morning hues | A |
Ah but the back look lingering | B |
For old sake's sake | D |
- | |
That we retain Though Time refuse | A |
To lift the veil on forward views | A |
Despot in most he is not King | B |
Of those kind memories that cling | B |
Around his travelled avenues | A |
For old sake's sake | D |

Qui n'a pas l'esprit de son ge | E |
De son ge a tout le malheur | F |
