Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEF| Come let us ere we go to bed | A |
| O'er the decaying embers chat | B |
| Though little Mary hangs her head | A |
| And strokes no more the purring cat | B |
| - | |
| And let us tell how prisoners pine | C |
| In silent dungeons dark and drear | D |
| Whilst on each face the embers shine | C |
| And all is calm and peaceful here | D |
| - | |
| The English cot is free from cares | E |
| But see the brand is wasted quite | F |
| Come little Mary say your prayers | E |
| Kiss mother kiss good night good night | F |
