One more Unfortunate	A
Weary of breath	B
Rashly importunate	A
Gone to her death	B
	-
Take her up tenderly	C
Lift her with care	D
Fashion'd so slenderly	C
Young and so fair	D
	-
Look at her garments	E
Clinging like cerements	E
Whilst the wave constantly	C
Drips from her clothing	F
Take her up instantly	C
Loving not loathing	F
	-
Touch her not scornfully	C
Think of her mournfully	C
Gently and humanly	C
Not of the stains of her	G
All that remains of her	G
Now is pure womanly	C
	-
Make no deep scrutiny	C
Into her mutiny	C
Rash and undutiful	C
Past all dishonour	G
Death has left on her	G
Only the beautiful	C
	-
Still for all slips of hers	E
One of Eve's family	C
Wipe those poor lips of hers	E
Oozing so clammily	C
	-
Loop up her tresses	E
Escaped from the comb	H
Her fair auburn tresses	E
Whilst wonderment guesses	E
Where was her home	H
	-
Who was her father	G
Who was her mother	G
Had she a sister	G
Had she a brother	G
Or was there a dearer one	I
Still and a nearer one	I
Yet than all other	G
	-
Alas for the rarity	C
Of Christian charity	C
Under the sun	I
O it was pitiful	C
Near a whole city full	C
Home she had none	I
	-
Sisterly brotherly	C
Fatherly motherly	C
Feelings had changed	A
Love by harsh evidence	E
Thrown from its eminence	E
Even God's providence	E
Seeming estranged	A
	-
Where the lamps quiver	G
So far in the river	G
With many a light	A
From window and casement	A
From garret to basement	A
She stood with amazement	A
Houseless by night	A
	-
The bleak wind of March	J
Made her tremble and shiver	G
But not the dark arch	J
Or the black flowing river	G
Mad from life's history	C
Glad to death's mystery	C
Swift to be hurl'd	A
Anywhere anywhere	G
Out of the world	A
	-
In she plunged boldly	C
No matter how coldly	C
The rough river ran	K
Over the brink of it	A
Picture it think of it	A
Dissolute Man	K
Lave in it drink of it	A
Then if you can	K
	-
Take her up tenderly	C
Lift her with care	G
Fashion'd so slenderly	C
Young and so fair	G
	-
Ere her limbs frigidly	C
Stiffen too rigidly	C
Decently kindly	C
Smooth and compose them	L
And her eyes close them	L
Staring so blindly	C
	-
Dreadfully staring	F
Thro' muddy impurity	C
As when with the daring	F
Last look of despairing	F
Fix'd on futurity	C
	-
Perishing gloomily	C
Spurr'd by contumely	C
Cold inhumanity	C
Burning insanity	C
Into her rest	C
Cross her hands humbly	C
As if praying dumbly	C
Over her breast	C
	-
Owning her weakness	E
Her evil behaviour	G
And leaving with meekness	E
Her sins to her Saviour	G
