Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDBD EFGF HIJI KBLB| Let those who will of friendship sing | A |
| And to its guerdon grateful be | B |
| But I a lyric garland bring | A |
| To crown thee O mine enemy | B |

| Thanks endless thanks to thee I owe | C |
| For that my lifelong journey through | D |
| Thine honest hate has done for me | B |
| What love perchance had failed to do | D |

| That purged all dull content away | I |
| Our mortal strife to me has been | J |
| Unflagging spur from day to day | I |

| And thus while all the world may laud | K |
| The gifts of love and loyalty | B |
| I lay my meed of gratitude | L |
| Before thy feet mine enemy | B |
