Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDB EFGFHI JKLKCC| HE feigned a fine indifference | A |
| To be so prodigal of light | B |

| But we forget so soon the shame | E |
| Conceiving sweetness if we can | F |
| Heaven the citadel itself | G |
| Illumined on the lunar plan | F |
| And I the chief of sinners I | H |
| The middlemost Victorian | I |

| Now I shall ride the misty lake | J |
| With my own love and speak so low | K |
| That not a fishy thing shall hear | L |
| The secrets passing to and fro | K |
| Amid the moonlight poetries | C |
| O moonshine how unman us so | C |
