Rhyme Scheme: ABCCCDDEFDBCDCFE| WHEN Helen first saw wrinkles in her face | A |
| T was when some fifty long had settled there | B |
| And intermarried and branch d off awide | C |
| She threw herself upon her couch and wept | C |
| On this side hung her head and over that | C |
| Listlessly she let fall the faithless brass | D |

| But when you | E |
| Found them or fancied them and would not hear | F |
| That they were only vestiges of smiles | D |
| Or the impression of some amorous hair | B |
| Astray from cloister d curls and roseate band | C |
| Which had been lying there all night perhaps | D |
| Upon a skin so soft No no you said | C |
| Sure they are coming yes are come are here | F |
| Well and what matters it while thou art too | E |
