Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEDF GHGI JKJK LMLM NJNJ| The wall between is grown so thin | A |
| That whoso peers may see | B |
| A flutter of rose a living green | C |
| Like new leaves on a tree | B |

| The wall's now gotten many a chink | D |
| Where whoso leans may hear | E |
| The feet of them who pass to drink | D |
| All at a well clear | F |

| The people go the people flow | G |
| T'other side o' the wall | H |
| With silken rustle and laughter low | G |
| As to a festival | I |
| - | |
| Come mother and wife and piteous bride | J |
| The wall's nigh broken through | K |
| And there be some the other side | J |
| That peep and pry for you | K |
| - | |
| So thin has grown like a precious stone | L |
| The wall no eye might pass | M |
| You may have vision of your own | L |
| As through a crystal glass | M |
| - | |
| And if that sight should you delight | N |
| Your tears will all be dried | J |
| For souls so bright that walk in white | N |
| Dear bliss on the other side | J |
