Rhyme Scheme: ABCACBBDDEE FGGFHHIJIJ KLMMKNOPOPQPQP| I am too proud of loving thee too proud | A |
| Of the sweet months and years that now have end | B |
| To feign a heart indifferent to this loss | C |
| Too thankful happy that the gods allowed | A |
| Our orbits cross | C |
| Beloved and lovely friend | B |
| And though I wend | B |
| Lonely henceforth along a road grown gray | D |
| I shall not be all lonely on the way | D |
| Companioned with the attar of thy rose | E |
| Though in my garden it no longer blows | E |
| - | |
| Thou canst not give elsewhere thy gifts to me | F |
| Or only seem to give | G |
| Yea not so fugitive | G |
| The glory that hath hallowed me and thee | F |
| Not thou or I alone that marvel wrought | H |
| Immortal is the paradise of thought | H |
| Nor ours to destroy | I |
| Born of our hearts together where bright streams | J |
| Ran through the woods for joy | I |
| That heaven of our dreams | J |
| - | |
| There shall it shine | K |
| Under green boughs | L |
| So long as May and June bring leaves and flowers | M |
| Couches of moss and fern and woven bowers | M |
| Still thine and mine | K |
| A golden house | N |
| And perchance e'er the winter that takes all | O |
| I there alone in the deep listening wood | P |
| Shall hear thy lost foot fall | O |
| And scarce believing the beatitude | P |
| Shall know thee there | Q |
| Wild heart to wild heart pressed | P |
| And wrap me in the splendour of thine hair | Q |
| And laugh within thy breast | P |
