Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHI| Oh to some distant scene a willing exile | A |
| From the wild roar of this busy world | B |
| Were it my fate with Delia to retire | C |
| With her to wander through the sylvan shade | D |
| Each morn or o'er the moss embrowned turf | E |
| Where blest as the prime parents of mankind | F |
| In their own Eden we would envy none | G |
| But greatly pitying whom the world calls happy | H |
| Gently spin out the silken thread of life | I |
William Cowper
