Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDD EFGGDDHH| Woman's faith and woman's trust | A |
| Write the characters in the dust | A |
| Stamp them on the running stream | B |
| Print them on the moon's pale beam | B |
| And each evanescent letter | C |
| Shall be clearer firmer better | C |
| And more permanent I ween | D |
| Than the thing those letters mean | D |

| I have strain'd the spider's thread | E |
| 'Gainst the promise of a maid | F |
| I have weigh'd a grain of sand | G |
| 'Gainst her plight of heart and hand | G |
| I told my true love of the token | D |
| How her faith proved light and her word was broken | D |
| Again her word and truth she plight | H |
| And I believed them again ere night | H |
