Rhyme Scheme: ABBCCDCCEEFGGHIIJJGG GGGGGGKKGGFBBGGGFFHH| IN wood hollows mate the swallows | A |
| On the house tops sparrows marry | B |
| Where's the laggard that would tarry | B |
| When the Spring is up and doing | C |
| And the doves of Love are cooing | C |
| O the lovers she discovers | D |
| Heart and heart together linking | C |
| 'Tis of them perchance you're thinking | C |
| In this moment's rich completeness | E |
| Tasting over bygone sweetness | E |
| Nay you gladden not but sadden | F |
| At the sight of such surrender | G |
| To Love's impulse warm and tender | G |
| As yon couple mingling kisses | H |
| Show nor dream that aught amiss is | I |
| Who supposes summer roses | I |
| When the bee no longer settles | J |
| On their satin surfaced petals | J |
| Young no more nor sweet nor tender | G |
| View with scorn their pirate's splendour | G |
| I remember one September | G |
| Light as thistledown or feather | G |
| Long with love we strayed together | G |
| Careless of wise word or censure | G |
| On a quest of sweet adventure | G |
| Why and wherefore blame them therefore | G |
| Puppets they yon pretty couple | K |
| He so strong and she so supple | K |
| Dancing fast and fast and faster | G |
| At the will of Love their master | G |
| Little woman Love is human | F |
| Fickle too and there's the pity | B |
| Never yet was wench so witty | B |
| King so strong or knave so clever | G |
| As to make him theirs for ever | G |
| Though September blows no ember | G |
| Into flame for you this season | F |
| Yet 'tis neither rhyme nor reason | F |
| Thus to scoff with chilly phrases | H |
| At the flames that she upraises | H |
