Rhyme Scheme: ABCD EFEF GHHII J

Mary and Lily how sweet are those namesA
Allied as they are to my heart and my homeB
Recalling with freshness the days that are pastC
Yielding buds of sweet promise for days yet to comeD
-
Links are these names to the chain that hath boundE
In fetters my heart to which still they lay claimF
Loved ones and lovely still close by me foundE
Years past and time present whose names are the sameF
-
Enshrined in this bosom is living one nowG
Still youthful and truthful and talented tooH
Though years have elapsed since she passed from our viewH
E'en in Summer midst roses in beauty and bloomI
She faded away and was borne to the tombI
