| And plods from day to day | B |
| The vulgar flourish like a weed | A |
| The learned pass away | B |

| We miss him on the summer path | C |
| The lonely summer day | B |
| Where mowers cut the pleasant swath | D |
| And maidens make the hay | B |

| The vulgar take but little heed | A |
| The garden wants his care | E |

| There stands the empty chair | E |

| The boat laid up the voyage oer | E |
| And passed the stormy wave | G |
| The world is going as before | E |
| The poet in his grave | G |
