Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDED FGHI JKLK MNMN OPOQ| My ev'ry thought and wish was thine | A |
| Alas thou know'st too well | B |

| Too dearly love thee still | D |

| All dreary spreads the frowning waste | J |
| A desert gloomy bare | K |
| The rugged path when found at last | L |
| Leads on but to despair | K |
| - | |
| No streams that cool the parching breeze | M |
| Spring in that desert rude | N |
| Save those the fainting Arab sees | M |
| That glitter to delude | N |
| - | |
| Or if some smiling view display'd | O |
| Would tempt my hope again | P |
| I know 'tis but an empty shade | O |
| And sigh to feel it vain | Q |
