Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDED FBFBGHEH IBIBCDED| Whither away thou little eyeless rover | A |
| Kind Roger's true | B |
| Whither away across yon bents and clover | A |
| Wet wet with dew | B |
| Roger here Roger there | C |
| Roger O he sighed | D |
| Yet let me glean among the wheat | E |
| Nor sit kind Roger's bride | D |

| What wilt thou do when all the gleaning's ended | F |

| The cold will come and fog and frost work blended | F |
| Kind Roger's true | B |
| Sleet and rain cloud and storm | G |
| When they cease to frown | H |
| I'll bind me primrose bunches sweet | E |
| And cry them up the town | H |
| - | |
| What if at last thy careless heart awaking | I |
| This day thou rue | B |
| I'll cry my flowers and think for all its breaking | I |
| Kind Roger's true | B |
| Roger here Roger there | C |
| O my true love sighed | D |
| Sigh once once more I'll stay my feet | E |
| And rest kind Roger's bride | D |
