It is a small piece in E-flat major and ternary form. It is a picturesque work depicting a scene of tranquil boating. The melody sings quietly with a Tranquillo tempo marking. The inner voices and bass consist of sixteenth notes, undulating as if accompanying the melody.

The main theme (measures 1-8) progresses with a detached touch, and modulates to G major in measures 7-8.

The development section spans measures 9-17. Measures 9-10 modulate to C minor. From measure 17, it returns to E-flat major and proceeds with a graceful melody. Measures 13-17 modulate to C minor with an espressivo marking, expressing a touch of desolation.

The recapitulation begins at measure 18. The coda begins at measure 22. In the middle register, it ascends with (C - E-flat - A-flat - C) and (B - C - D - E-flat), then ascends with an arpeggiated E-flat major I chord.
