Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEDEFGFHIJIJKLKL M| Ah where are hours departed fled | A |
| Is life a dream or true indeed | B |
| Did all my heart hath fashioned | C |
| From fancy's visitings proceed | B |
| Yes I have slept and now unknown | D |
| To me the things best known before | E |
| The land the people once mine own | D |
| Where are they they are here no more | E |
| My boyhood's friends all aged worn | F |
| Despoil'd the woods the fields of home | G |
| Only the stream flows on forlorn | F |
| Alas that e'er such change should come | H |
| And he knew me once so well | I |
| Salutes me now as one estranged | J |
| The very earth to me can tell | I |
| Of nought but things perverted changed | J |
| And when I muse on other days | K |
| That pass'd me as the dashing oars | L |
| The surface of the ocean raise | K |
| Ceaseless my heart its fate deplores | L |
| c | M |
