| And still when happiest soonest o'er | B |
| Yet even in a dream to be blest | A |
| Is so sweet that I ask for no more | C |
| The bosom that opes | D |
| With earliest hopes | D |
| The soonest finds those hopes untrue | E |
| As flowers that first | F |
| In spring time burst | F |
| The earliest wither too | E |
| Ay 'tis all but a dream etc | G |

| Tho' by friendship we oft are deceived | H |
| And find love's sunshine soon o'ercast | H |
| Yet friendship will still be believed | H |
| And love trusted on to the last | H |
| The web 'mong the leaves | D |
| The spider weaves | D |
| Is like the charm Hope hangs o'er men | I |
| Tho' often she sees | D |
| 'Tis broke by the breeze | D |
| She spins the bright tissue again | I |
| Ay 'tis all but a dream etc | G |
