Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCD CECECDCD| Oh days of youth and joy long clouded | A |
| Why thus for ever haunt my view | B |
| When in the grave your light lay shrouded | A |
| Why did not Memory die there too | B |
| Vainly doth hope her strain now sing me | C |
| Telling of joys that yet remain | D |
| No never more can this life bring me | C |
| One joy that equals youth's sweet pain | D |
| - | |
| Dim lies the way to death before me | C |
| Cold winds of Time blow round my brow | E |
| Sunshine of youth that once fell o'er me | C |
| Where is your warmth your glory now | E |
| 'Tis not that then no pain could sting me | C |
| 'Tis not that now no joys remain | D |
| Oh 'tis that life no more can bring me | C |
| One joy so sweet as that worst pain | D |
