| Loud drones his fairy threshing wheel | O |
| Hour when some poet wit might feign | P |
| The drowsy tune of the throbbing air | G |
| The weaving of the gossamer | F |
| In secret nooks of wood and lane | P |
| The gossamer silk night robes of the flowers | Q |
| Fluttered apart by amorous morning hours | Q |
| Yea as the weaving of the gossamer | F |
| If truly that the mystic golden boom | R |
| Is the strange rapture of my hidden loom | R |
| As I sit in the light of the thought of her | F |
| And it weaveth weaveth day by day | C |

| Weaving this rhyme of my lady and me | A |
| Weaving weaving this warp of rhyme | B |
| For lovers in the after time | B |

| My lady lover may never be mine | S |
| In the same sweet way that thine is thine | S |
| My lady and I may never stand | T |
| By the holy altar hand in hand | T |
| My lady and I may never rest | U |
| Through the golden midnight breast to breast | U |
| Nor share long days of happy light | V |
| Sweet moving in each other's sight | V |
| Yea even must we ever miss | W |
| The honey of the chastest kiss | W |
