Rhyme Scheme: AABBCDDEEC FFGGHIIJJH| Not till the sun that brings to birth | A |
| The myriad marvels of the earth | A |
| And bids us look with wandering eyes | B |
| On all that here about us lies | B |
| Has gone behind the hill | C |
| Do you O peaceful evening star | D |
| Gaze on the dusk in which we are | D |
| And draw the heart of hope and love | E |
| To infinite deep on deep above | E |
| And bid our care be still | C |
| - | |
| All glorious pleasures of the day | F |
| When every sense may have its way | F |
| And thought may touch the tiniest fact | G |
| And gauge the motive and the act | G |
| And measure our delight | H |
| Depart and leave us to the quest | I |
| Of quiet solitude and rest | I |
| And knowledge that the plotting brain | J |
| With all its science cannot gain | J |
| But from the soul of Night | H |
