Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CBDB EFEB GBGB HGHB IBIB| Ah me I shall not waken soon | A |
| From dreams of such divinity | B |
| A spirit singing 'neath the moon | A |

| Wild sea spray driven of the storm | C |
| Is not so wildly white as she | B |
| Who beckoned with a foam white arm | D |

| With eyes dark green and golden green | E |
| Long locks that rippled drippingly | F |
| Out of the green wave she did lean | E |

| A far forgotten memory | B |
| And more than Heaven in her who gleamed | G |
| On me | B |

| Sleep sweeter than love's face or home | H |
| And death's immutability | G |
| And music of the plangent foam | H |
| For me | B |
| - | |
| Sweep over her with all thy ships | I |
| With all thy stormy tides O sea | B |
| The memory of immortal lips | I |
| For me | B |
