Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEDEFBCBGHIHJBCB| It was not in the Winter | A |
| Our loving lot was cast | B |
| It was the Time of Roses | C |
| We plucked them as we passed | B |
| That churlish season never frown'd | D |
| On early lovers yet | E |
| Oh no the world was newly crown'd | D |
| With flowers when first we met | E |
| 'Twas twilight and I bade you go | F |
| But still you held me fast | B |
| It was the Time of Roses | C |
| We pluck'd them as we pass'd | B |
| What else could peer thy glowing cheek | G |
| That tears began to stud | H |
| And when I ask'd the like of Love | I |
| You snatched a damask bud | H |
| And oped it to the dainty core | J |
| Still glowing to the last | B |
| It was the Time of Roses | C |
| We plucked them as we pass'd | B |
