Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DCEC FEGE HBIBHow many million Aprils came | A |
Before I ever knew | B |
How white a cherry bough could be | C |
A bed of squills how blue | B |

And many a dancing April | D |
When life is done with me | C |
Will lift the blue flame of the flower | E |
And the white flame of the tree | C |

Oh burn me with your beauty then | F |
Oh hurt me tree and flower | E |
Lest in the end death try to take | G |
Even this glistening hour | E |

O shaken flowers O shimmering trees | H |
O sunlit white and blue | B |
Wound me that I through endless sleep | I |
May bear the scar of you | B |
