Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDAA EECCFGHI JJKKLLLLLL MMENOOPPAA QQCCFGHI| Saturday night in the crowded town | A |
| Pleasure and pain going up and down | A |
| Murmuring low on the ear there beat | B |
| Echoes unceasing of voice and feet | B |
| Withered age with its load of care | C |
| Come in this tumult of life to share | C |
| Childhood glad in its radiance brief | D |
| Happiest hearted or bowed with grief | D |
| Meet alike as the stars look down | A |
| Week by week on the crowded town | A |
| - | |
| And in a kingdom of mystery | E |
| Rapt from this weariful world to see | E |
| Magic sights in the yellow glare | C |
| Breathing delight in the gas lit air | C |
| Careless of sorrow of grief or pain | F |
| Two by two again and again | G |
| Strephon and Chloe together move | H |
| Walking in Arcady land of love | I |
| - | |
| What are the meanings that burden all | J |
| These murmuring voices that rise and fall | J |
| Tragedies whispered of secrets told | K |
| Over the baskets of bought and sold | K |
| Joyous speech of the lately wed | L |
| Broken lamentings that name the dead | L |
| Endless runes of the gossip's rede | L |
| And gathered home with the weekly need | L |
| Kindly greetings as neighbours meet | L |
| There in the stir of the busy street | L |
| - | |
| Then is the glare of the gaslight ray | M |
| Gifted with potency strange to day | M |
| Records of time written history | E |
| Flash into sight as each face goes by | N |
| There as the hundreds slow moving go | O |
| Each with his burden of joy or woe | O |
| Souls in the meeting of stranger's eyes | P |
| Startled this kinship to recognise | P |
| Meet and part as the stars look down | A |
| Week by week on the crowded town | A |
| - | |
| And still in the midst of the busy hum | Q |
| Rapt in their dream of delight they come | Q |
| Heedless of sorrow of grief or care | C |
| Wandering on in enchanted air | C |
| Far from the haunting shadow of pain | F |
| Two by two again and again | G |
| Strephon and Chloe together move | H |
| Walking in Arcady land of love | I |
