Rhyme Scheme: ABCADEFEGFHIHIJJ| Within a corner of this windowed room | A |
| He sits and seldom speaks and seldom | B |
| moves | C |
| Forever left within eternal gloom | A |
| He thinks of those he left and those he loves | D |
| The clouds were his the colours of the day | E |
| The purple mists the deepest shades of blue | F |
| The yellow flames the stars the milky way | E |
| And smiles and frowns and stretching moon | G |
| light too | F |
| He knew the sun upon the eastern sea | H |
| And watched it set behind a western hill | I |
| He saw the depth of waters space the free | H |
| Ascent of birds All these he knew until | I |
| The bursting shell And now as life is long | J |
| He sits alone and whistles some old song | J |
