| Oh what art thou in mine | B |

| For she who nurs'd thy drooping form | D |
| When Winter pour'd her snowy storm | D |

| For me a fost'ring tear has shed | F |
| She has reviv'd my drooping head | F |
| And bade me bloom anew | E |

| Sweet flow'r supremely dear to me | K |
| Thy lovely mistress blooms in thee | K |

| Thy modest form to hide | L |
| - | |
| Oh crown'd with many a roseate year | N |
| Bless'd may she be who plac'd thee here | O |
| Until the tear of love | J |
| Shall tremble in the eye to find | P |
| Her spirit spotless and refin'd | P |
| Borne to the realms above | J |
| - | |
| And oft for thee sweet child of spring | Q |
| The Muse shall touch her tend'rest string | Q |
| And as thou rear'st thine head | F |
| She shall invoke the softest air | R |
| Or ask the chilling storm to spare | R |
| And bless thy humble bed | F |
