Rhyme Scheme: ABAC DEDE FGFG HIHI JKJK LMLMN| When to the font this morn my lips I pressed | A |
| A fairy's gift my fingers trembled o'er | B |
| A sweeter prayer ne'er smile of angel blessed | A |
| Nor gemmed a tiar that the priesthood wore | C |
| - | |
| The secret of they grief I may not know | D |
| Since that thy lips refuse the tale to tell | E |
| Methinks dear child it was the sound of woe | D |
| That woke an echo in my heart's deep well | E |

| The wail of a spirit that a yearning gropes | F |
| In darkness for the sunlight that is fled | G |
| A broken idol in secret wept and hopes | F |
| Crushed hopes that are to thee as are the dead | G |
| - | |
| A tender memory ling'ring yet of when | H |
| Each bounding pulse beat faster with its joy | I |
| A something that allured and won and then | H |
| With waking fled and years may not destroy | I |
| - | |
| The impress which it left upon thy brain | J |
| But seek thee child grief's ravaging to stay | K |
| Thy tears might fall as falls the show'ring rain | J |
| They could not wash the heart's deep scars away | K |
| - | |
| Repine thee not shroud not they faith in gloom | L |
| Shrink not to meet a disappointment's frown | M |
| Away beyond the narrow bordered tomb | L |
| Who here have borne the cross may wear the crown | M |
