Rhyme Scheme: ABBA CDCEEFFGGHHIIJ DCJKLKM

LET love go if go she willA
Seek not O fool her wanton flight to stayB
Of all she gives and takes awayB
The best remains behind her stillA
-
The best remains behind in vainC
Joy she may give and take againD
Joy she may take and leave us painC
If yet she leave behindE
The constant mindE
To meet all fortunes nobly to endureF
All things with a good heart and still be pureF
Still to be foremost in the foremost causeG
And still be worthy of the love that wasG
Love coming is omnipotent indeedH
But not Love going Let her go The seedH
Springs in the favouring Summer air and growsI
And waxes strong and when the Summer goesI
Remains a perfect treeJ
-
Joy she may give and take againD
Joy she may take and leave us painC
O Love and what care weJ
For one thing thou hast given O Love one thingK
Is ours that nothing can removeL
And as the King discrowned is still a KingK
The unhappy lover still preserves his loveM
