Rhyme Scheme: ABABC CDCDD CECEE CFCFF| What magic shall solve us the secret | A |
| Of beauty that's born for an hour | B |
| That gleams like the flight of an egret | A |
| Or burns like the scent of a flower | B |
| With death for a dower | C |
| - | |
| What leaps in the bosk but a satyr | C |
| What pipes on the wind but a faun | D |
| Or laughs in the waters that scatter | C |
| But limbs of a nymph who is gone | D |
| When we walk in the dawn | D |
| - | |
| What sings on the hills but a fairy | C |
| Or sighs in the fields but a sprite | E |
| What breathes through the leaves but the airy | C |
| Soft spirits of shadow and light | E |
| When we walk in the night | E |
| - | |
| Behold how the world heart is eager | C |
| To draw us and hold us and claim | F |
| Through truths of the dreams that beleaguer | C |
| Her soul she makes ours the same | F |
| And death but a name | F |
