Rhyme Scheme: ABABACDC AEAEAFDF| When violets were springing | A |
| And sunshine filled the day | B |
| And happy birds were singing | A |
| The praises of the May | B |
| A word came to me blighting | A |
| The beauty of the scene | C |
| And in my heart was winter | D |
| Though all the trees were green | C |

| Now down the blast go sailing | A |
| The dead leaves brown and sere | E |
| The forests are bewailing | A |
| The dying of the year | E |

| With rapture all the air | F |
| And in my heart is summer | D |
| Though all the trees are bare | F |
