Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEDECCCCFF| When I have fears that I may cease to be | A |
| Before my pen has glean'd my teeming brain | B |
| Before high piled books in charactery | C |
| Hold like rich garners the full ripen'd grain | B |
| When I behold upon the night's starr'd face | D |
| Huge cloudy symbols of a high romance | E |
| And think that I may never live to trace | D |
| Their shadows with the magic hand of chance | E |
| And when I feel fair creature of an hour | C |
| That I shall never look upon thee more | C |
| Never have relish in the faery power | C |
| Of unreflecting love then on the shore | C |
| Of the wide world I stand alone and think | F |
| Till love and fame to nothingness do sink | F |
