Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBCCBBCDEEDDFBG GBBH| I climbed the stair in Antwerp church | A |
| What time the circling thews of sound | B |

| Far up the carillon did search | A |
| The wind and the birds came to perch | A |
| Far under where the gables wound | B |
| In Antwerp harbour on the Scheldt | B |

| Hold state at Bruges In sore shame | E |
| I scanned the works that keep their name | E |
| The carillon which then did strike | D |
| Mine ears was heard of theirs alike | D |
| It set me closer unto them | F |
| I climbed at Bruges all the flight | B |
| The belfry has of ancient stone | G |
| For leagues I saw the east wind blown | G |
| The earth was grey the sky was white | B |
| I stood so near upon the height | B |
| That my flesh felt the carillon | H |
