Rhyme Scheme: ABCCABAADEFGHIJEKLMA N| A man I praise that once in Tara's Hals | A |
| Said to the woman on his knees 'Lie still | B |
| My hundredth year is at an end I think | C |
| That something is about to happen I think | C |
| That the adventure of old age begins | A |
| To many women I have said Lie still | B |

| Summoned the generations of his house | A |
| Lay in the coffin stopped his breath and died | N |
