Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEF| The glory of the day was in her face | A |
| The beauty of the night was in her eyes | B |
| And over all her loveliness the grace | A |
| Of Morning blushing in the early skies | B |
| - | |
| And in her voice the calling of the dove | C |
| Like music of a sweet melodious part | D |
| And in her smile the breaking light of love | C |
| And all the gentle virtues in her heart | D |

| And now the glorious day the beauteous night | E |
| The birds that signal to their mates at dawn | F |
| To my dull ears to my tear blinded sight | E |
| Are one with all the dead since she is gone | F |
