| A rogue in red and yellow dress | D |
| Is knocking knocking at the tree | E |

| The leaves they do not sigh at all | G |
| When the year takes them in the fall | G |

| Now O now we hear no more | H |
| The vilanelle and roundelay | G |
| Yet will we kiss sweetheart before | H |
| We take sad leave at close of day | C |
| Grieve not sweetheart for anything | I |
| The year the year is gathering | I |
