| Spring may boast her flowery prime | B |
| Yet the vineyard's ruby treasures | A |

| So Life's year begins and closes | C |
| Days tho' shortening still can shine | D |
| What tho' youth gave love and roses | C |
| Age still leaves us friends and wine | D |

| Phillis when she might have caught me | E |
| All the Spring looked coy and shy | F |

| When the flowers were all gone by | F |
| Ah too late she found her lover | G |
| Calm and free beneath his vine | D |
| Drinking to the Spring time over | G |
| In his best autumnal wine | D |

| Thus may we as years are flying | H |
| To their flight our pleasures suit | I |
| Nor regret the blossoms dying | H |
| While we still may taste the fruit | I |
| Oh while days like this are ours | A |
| Where's the lip that dares repine | D |
| Spring may take our loves and flowers | A |
| So Autumn leaves us friends and wine | D |
