Rhyme Scheme: AABBCDEEEEFGHHEEEE| Ianthe you are call'd to cross the sea | A |
| A path forbidden me | A |
| Remember while the Sun his blessing sheds | B |
| Upon the mountain heads | B |
| How often we have watcht him laying down | C |
| His brow and dropt our own | D |
| Against each other's and how faint and short | E |
| And sliding the support | E |
| What will succeed it now Mine is unblest | E |
| Ianthe nor will rest | E |
| But on the very thought that swells with pain | F |
| O bid me hope again | G |
| O give me back what Earth what without you | H |
| Not Heaven itself can do | H |
| One of the golden days that we have past | E |
| And let it be my last | E |
| Or else the gift would be however sweet | E |
| Fragile and incomplete | E |
