Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEG HEHE| The misty rain makes dim my face | A |
| The night's black cloak is o'er me | B |
| I tread the dripping cypress place | A |
| A flickering light before me | B |
| - | |
| Out of the death of leaves that rot | C |
| And ooze and weedy water | D |
| My form was breathed to haunt this spot | C |
| Death's immaterial daughter | D |
| - | |
| The owl that whoops upon the yew | E |
| The snake that lairs within it | F |
| Have seen my wild face flashing blue | E |
| For one fantastic minute | G |
| - | |
| But should you follow where my eyes | H |
| Like some pale lamp decoy you | E |
| Beware lest suddenly I rise | H |
| With love that shall destroy you | E |
