Rhyme Scheme: ABABAB CDCDCD EFEFEF EAEGEG EHEHEH| How fancy romped and played here | A |
| Building this house of moss | B |
| A faery house the shade here | A |
| And sunlight gleam across | B |
| And how it danced and swayed here | A |
| A child with locks atoss | B |
| - | |
| I pause to gaze and ponder | C |
| And whisk I seem to know | D |
| How in that house and under | C |
| The starry elf lamps glow | D |
| And pixy dances sunder | C |
| The hush when night falls slow | D |
| - | |
| Oh that a witch had willed it | E |
| That those child dreams come true | F |
| With which the child heart filled it | E |
| While 'neath glad hands it grew | F |
| And dim amort it builded | E |
| Far better than it knew | F |
| - | |
| For Middleage that wandered | E |
| And found it hidden here | A |
| And pausing gazed and pondered | E |
| Knowing a mystery near | G |
| A dream its childhood squandered | E |
| Or lost gone many a year | G |
| - | |
| Had not Time so distorted | E |
| My vision haply I | H |
| Had also viewed wild hearted | E |
| Dreams which that child drew nigh | H |
| And to the world imparted | E |
| Strange news none dare deny | H |
