Rhyme Scheme: AABC DDAA EEAA FFGG AAHH| Sweet sister if you knew like me | A |
| The charms of guileless infancy | A |
| No more you'd envy riper years | B |
| Or smiles more bitter than your tears | C |
| - | |
| But childhood passes in an hour | D |
| As perfume from a faded flower | D |
| The joyous voice of early glee | A |
| Flies like the Halcyon o'er the sea | A |
| - | |
| Enjoy your morn of early Spring | E |
| Soon time maturer thoughts must bring | E |
| Those hours like flowers that interclimb | A |
| Should not be withered ere their time | A |

| Too soon you'll weep as we do now | F |
| O'er faithless friend or broken vow | F |
| And hopeless sorrows which our pride | G |
| In pleasure's whirl would vainly hide | G |
| - | |
| Laugh on unconscious of thy doom | A |
| All innocence and opening bloom | A |
| Laugh on while yet thine azure eye | H |
| Mirrors the peace that reigns on high | H |
