Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHIJKGLCMNOJPQ RSTUFMGGV| Reverend sir forgive this pair of | A |
| sinners Spring winds to day are | B |
| blowing in wild eddies driving dust | C |
| and dead leaves away and with them | D |
| your lessons are all lost | E |
| Do not say father that life is a | F |
| vanity | G |
| For we have made truce with death | H |
| for once and only for a few fragrant | I |
| hours we two have been made immortal | J |
| Even if the king's army came and | K |
| fiercely fell upon us we should sadly | G |
| shake our heads and say Brothers | L |
| you are disturbing us If you must | C |
| have this noisy game go and clatter | M |
| your arms elsewhere Since only for | N |
| a few fleeting moments we have been | O |
| made immortal | J |
| If friendly people came and flocked | P |
| around us we should humbly bow to | Q |
| them and say This extravagant good | R |
| fortune is an embarrassment to us | S |
| Room is scarce in the infinite sky | T |
| where we dwell For in the spring | U |
| time flowers come in crowds and the | F |
| busy wings of bees jostle each other | M |
| Our little heaven where dwell only | G |
| we two immortals is too absurdly | G |
| narrow | V |
