Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCD EFGFCDCD| Her last words at parting how can I forget | A |
| Deep treasured thro' life in my heart they shall stay | B |
| Like music whose charm in the soul lingers yet | A |
| When its sounds from the ear have long melted away | B |
| Let Fortune assail me her threatenings are vain | C |
| Those still breathing words shall my talisman be | D |
| Remember in absence in sorrow and pain | C |
| There's one heart unchanging that beats but for thee | D |

| From the desert's sweet well tho' the pilgrim must hie | E |
| Never more of that fresh springing fountain to taste | F |
| He hath still of its bright drops a treasured supply | G |
| Whose sweetness lends life to his lips thro' the waste | F |
| So dark as my fate is still doomed to remain | C |
| These words shall my well in the wilderness be | D |
| Remember in absence in sorrow and pain | C |
| There's one heart unchanging that beats but for thee | D |
