| When Fall drowns morns in mist it seems | A |
| In soul I am a part of it | B |
| A portion of its humid beams | A |
| A form of fog I seem to flit | B |
| From dreams to dreams | A |
| - | |
| An old chateau sleeps 'mid the hills | A |
| Of France an avenue of sorbs | A |
| Conceals it drifts of daffodils | A |
| Bloom by a 'scutcheoned gate with barbs | A |
| Like iron bills | A |
| - | |
| I pass the gate unquestioned yet | C |
| I feel announced Broad holm oaks make | D |
| Dark pools of restless violet | B |
| Between high bramble banks a lake | D |
| As in a net | C |
| - | |
| The tangled scales twist silver shines | A |
| Gray mossy turrets swell above | E |
| A sea of leaves And where the pines | A |
| Shade ivied walls there lies my love | E |
| My heart divines | A |
| - | |
| I know her window slimly seen | F |
| From distant lanes with hawthorn hedged | G |
| Her garden with the nectarine | F |
| Espaliered and the peach tree wedged | G |
| 'Twixt walls of green | F |
| - | |
| Cool babbling a fountain falls | A |
| From gryphons' mouths in porphyry | H |
| Carp haunt its waters and white balls | A |
| Of lilies dip it when the bee | H |
| Creeps in and drawls | A |
| - | |
| And butterflies each with a face | A |
| Of faery on its wings that seem | I |
| Beheaded pansies softly chase | A |
| Each other down the gloom and gleam | I |
| Trees interspace | A |
| - | |
| And roses roses soft as vair | H |
| Round sylvan statues and the old | J |
| Stone dial Pompadours that wear | H |
| Their royalty of purple and gold | J |
| With wanton air | H |
| - | |
| Her scarf her lute whose ribbons breathe | K |
| The perfume of her touch her gloves | A |
| Modeling the daintiness they sheathe | K |
| Her fan a Watteau gay with loves | A |
| Lie there beneath | L |
| - | |
| A bank of eglantine that heaps | A |
| A rose strewn shadow Naive eyed | M |
| With lips as suave as they she sleeps | A |
| The romance by her open wide | M |
| O'er which she weeps | A |
