Rhyme Scheme: AAAABC ADADEF BGBGHHThe stars a jolly company | A |
I envied straying late and lonely | A |
And cried upon their revelry | A |
O white companionship You only | A |
In love in faith unbroken dwell | B |
Friends radiant and inseparable | C |

Light heart and glad they seemed to me | A |
And merry comrades EVEN SO | D |
GOD OUT OF HEAVEN MAY LAUGH TO SEE | A |
THE HAPPY CROWDS AND NEVER KNOW | D |
THAT IN HIS LONE OBSCURE DISTRESS | E |
EACH WALKETH IN A WILDERNESS | F |

But I remembering pitied well | B |
And loved them who with lonely light | G |
In empty infinite spaces dwell | B |
Disconsolate For all the night | G |
I heard the thin gnat voices cry | H |
Star to faint star across the sky | H |
