Rhyme Scheme: ABCADEEAEFEGEF| AS he that loves oft looks on the dear form | A |
| And guesses how it grew to womanhood | B |
| And gladly would have watched the beauties bud | C |
| And the mild fire of precious life wax warm | A |
| So I long bound within the threefold charm | D |
| Of Dante's love sublimed to heavenly mood | E |
| Had marvelled touching his Beatitude | E |
| How grew such presence from man's shameful swarm | A |
| At length within this book I found pourtrayed | E |
| Newborn that Paradisal Love of his | F |
| And simple like a child with whose clear aid | E |
| I understood To such a child as this | G |
| Christ charging well His chosen ones forbade | E |
| Offence for lo of such my kingdom is | F |
