| I saw her and yesterday | B |
| My heart from me flew away | B |

| She sits on the bare ground to rest | C |
| On canvas her vigil she keeps | D |
| The tired spouse at her feet sleeps | D |
| And a naked babe at her breast | C |

| Among the scattered straw is seen | E |
| The peeled remnants of their last meal | F |

| On the grim earth for the weary | H |
| Grow neither violet nor thorn | I |
| From a loving home they're torn | I |
| And the sky is dark and dreary | H |

| With my heart and will not free it | J |
| At the proud salon's exhibit | J |
| Of masters of yesterday | B |
