| The rifted crags that hold | B |
| The gathered ice of winter | C |
| He says are not more cold | B |

| When even the very blossoms | D |
| Around the fountain's brim | E |
| And forest walks can witness | F |
| The love I bear to him | E |

| My feelings without shame | G |
| And tell him how I love him | E |
| Nor wrong my virgin fame | G |

| Alas to seize the moment | H |
| When heart inclines to heart | I |
| And press a suit with passion | J |
| Is not a woman's part | I |
| - | |
| If man comes not to gather | C |
| The roses where they stand | K |
| They fade among their foliage | L |
| They cannot seek his hand | K |
