Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCE FGHG IJIJMY little boy thy laughter | A |
Goes to my bosom core | B |
And sends me yearning after | A |
The days that are no more | B |
- | |
Adown my cheek is stealing | C |
A briny tear and I | D |
But let no selfish feeling | C |
Thy infant mirth destroy | E |
- | |
Fill not with looks so earnest | F |
Those pretty eyes of thine | G |
A lot were thine the sternest | H |
Couldst thou my thought divine | G |

There's time enough for sorrow | I |
When Life's pale eve draws near | J |
The lark lilts thee Good Morrow | I |
Ring out thy laughter clear | J |
