Rhyme Scheme: ABAC DEDE FGFG HIHI FJFJ| Thou brooklet all unknown to song | A |
| Hid in the covert of the wood | B |
| Ah yes like thee I fear the throng | A |
| Like thee I love the solitude | C |
| - | |
| O brooklet let my sorrows past | D |
| Lie all forgotten in their graves | E |
| Till in my thoughts remain at last | D |
| Only thy peace thy flowers thy waves | E |
| - | |
| The lily by thy margin waits | F |
| The nightingale the marguerite | G |
| In shadow here he meditates | F |
| His nest his love his music sweet | G |
| - | |
| Near thee the self collected soul | H |
| Knows naught of error or of crime | I |
| Thy waters murmuring as they roll | H |
| Transform his musings into rhyme | I |
| - | |
| Ah when on bright autumnal eves | F |
| Pursuing still thy course shall I | J |
| Lisp the soft shudder of the leaves | F |
| And hear the lapwing's plaintive cry | J |
