Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDBDEFGEHG| Mad are we all maids men young fools alike and old | A |
| All we that wander blind and want the with to dare | B |
| Dark through the world we go dazed sheep across life's wold | A |
| Edged from the flowers we loved by our herd's crook of care | B |
| Life Have we lived it No We were not as these were | C |
| Intent untiring souls who proved time till their death | D |
| Nay we were sluggards all how crazed in our despair | B |
| Each day of their fame won here nobly witnesseth | D |

| Years vanish unfulfilled but work achieved lives on | F |
| Not all Time's beauty died when these two fell asleep | G |
| Dear Madeline if we grieve our own less strenuous fate | E |
| Heaven send us still this strength this joy now they are gone | H |
| At least like these to love even though mad fools we weep | G |
