Rhyme Scheme: AABB CCDD EEAALet me come in where you sit weeping aye | A |
Let me who have not any child to die | A |
Weep with you for the little one whose love | B |
I have known nothing of | B |
- | |
The little arms that slowly slowly loosed | C |
Then pressure round your neck the hands you vised | C |
To kiss such arms such hands I never knew | D |
May I not weep with you | D |

Fain would I be of service say something | E |
Between the tears that would be comforting | E |
But Oh so sadder than yourself am I | A |
Who have not any child to die | A |
