Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDEEFFGGHHIIEE| When the buds began to burst | A |
| Long ago with Rose the First | A |
| I was walking joyous then | B |
| Far above all other men | B |
| Till before us up there stood | C |
| Britonferry's oaken wood | C |
| Whispering Happy as thou art | D |
| Happiness and thou must part | D |
| Many summers have gone by | E |
| Since a Second Rose and I | E |
| Rose from the same stem have told | F |
| This and other tales of old | F |
| She upon her wedding day | G |
| Carried home my tenderest lay | G |
| From her lap I now have heard | H |
| Gleeful chirping Rose the Third | H |
| Not for her this hand of mine | I |
| Rhyme with nuptial wreath shall twine | I |
| Cold and torpid it must lie | E |
| Mute the tongue and closed the eye | E |
