Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCD CECEFAFA| Still thou fliest and still I woo thee | A |
| Lovely phantom all in vain | B |
| Restless ever my thoughts pursue thee | A |
| Fleeting ever thou mock'st their pain | B |
| Such doom of old that youth betided | C |
| Who wooed he thought some angel's charms | D |
| But found a cloud that from him glided | C |
| As thou dost from these outstretched arms | D |
| - | |
| Scarce I've said How fair thou shinest | C |
| Ere thy light hath vanished by | E |
| And 'tis when thou look'st divinest | C |
| Thou art still most sure to fly | E |
| Even as the lightning that dividing | F |
| The clouds of night saith Look on me | A |
| Then flits again its splendor hiding | F |
| Even such the glimpse I catch of thee | A |
