Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEDE FGFG| Our game was his but yesteryear | A |
| We wished him back we could not know | B |
| The self same hour we missed him here | C |
| He led the line that broke the foe | B |

| Blood red behind our guarded posts | D |
| Sank as of old and dying day | E |
| The battle ceased the mingled hosts | D |
| Weary and cheery went their way | E |

| Dear lad before the world was sped | F |
| For evermore thy goal was won | G |
