Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEF EGEG| When the first dark had fallen around them | A |
| And the leaves were weary of praise | B |
| In the clear silence Beauty found them | A |
| And shewed them all her ways | B |
| - | |
| In the high noon of the heavenly garden | C |
| Where the angels sunned with the birds | D |
| Beauty before their hearts could harden | C |
| Had taught them heavenly words | D |
| - | |
| When they fled in the burning weather | E |
| And nothing dawned but a dream | F |
| Beauty fasted their hands together | E |
| And cooled them at her stream | F |
| - | |
| And when day wearied and night grew stronger | E |
| And they slept as the beautiful must | G |
| Then she bided a little longer | E |
| And blossomed from their dust | G |
