| That garden which my spirit trod | B |

| Not while I breathe awake adream | C |
| Shall live again for me those hours | D |
| When in its mystery and gleam | C |
| I met her 'mid the flowers | D |

| Her bosom's moony molds | J |
| - | |
| Nor of her large limbs' languorous | J |
| Wind grace that glanced like starlight through | K |
| Her ardent robe's diaphanous | J |
| Web of the mist and dew | K |

| There is no star so pure and high | L |
| As was her look no fragrance such | M |
| At her soft presence and no sigh | L |
| Of music like her touch | M |
| - | |
| Not while I live may I forget | A |
| That garden of dim dreams where I | L |
| And Song within the spirit met | A |
| Sweet Song who passed me by | L |
