Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEFGHIJIKELG MNONPEQG| What bitter sorrow courses down | A |
| Yon mourner s faded cheek | B |
| Those scalding drops betray a grief | C |
| Within too full to speak | B |
| Outspoken words cannot express | D |
| The pangs the pains of years | E |
| They re ne er so deep or eloquent | F |
| As are those silent tears | G |
| Here is a wound that in the breast | H |
| Must canker hid n from sight | I |
| Though all without seems sunny day | J |
| Within Tis ever night | I |
| Yet sometimes from this secret source | K |
| The gloomy truth appears | E |
| The wind s dark dungeon must have vent | L |
| If but in silent tears | G |
| - | |
| The world may deem from outward looks | M |
| That heart is hard and cold | N |
| But oh could they the mantle lift | O |
| What sorrows would be told | N |
| Then only then the truth would show | P |
| Which most the bosom sears | E |
| The pain portrayed by burning words | Q |
| Or that by silent tears | G |
