Rhyme Scheme: ABCCDEFEAB GGHHIJIJGG KKLLMNMMKK| Beyond the orchard in the lane | A |
| The crested red bird sings again | B |
| O bird whose song says Have no care | C |
| Should I not care when CONSTANCE there | C |
| My CONSTANCE with the bashful gaze | D |
| Pink gowned like some sweet hollyhock | E |
| If I declare my love just says | F |
| Some careless thing as if in mock | E |
| Like Past the orchard in the lane | A |
| How sweet the red bird sings again | B |

| There while the red bird sings his best | G |
| His listening mate sits on the nest | G |
| O bird whose patience says All's well | H |
| How can it be with me now tell | H |
| When CONSTANCE with averted eyes | I |
| Soft bonneted as some sweet pea | J |
| If I speak marriage just replies | I |
| With some such quaint irrelevancy | J |
| As While the red bird sings his best | G |
| His loving mate sits on the nest | G |
| - | |
| What shall I say what can I do | K |
| Would such replies mean aught to you | K |
| O birds whose gladness says Be glad | L |
| Have I not reason to be sad | L |
| When CONSTANCE with demurest glance | M |
| Her face a poppy with distress | N |
| If I reproach her pouts perchance | M |
| And answers so in waywardness | M |
| What shall I say what can I do | K |
| My meaning should be plain to you | K |
