Rhyme Scheme: AAAABCCBDDEEFGGFHHIJ KLLKDDAAMNND| Mine to the core of the heart my beauty | A |
| Mine all mine and for love not duty | A |
| Love given willingly full and free | A |
| Love for love's sake as mine to thee | A |
| Duty's a slave that keeps the keys | B |
| But Love the master goes in and out | C |
| Of his goodly chambers with song and shout | C |
| Just as he please just as he please | B |
| Mine from the dear head's crown brown golden | D |
| To the silken foot that's scarce beholden | D |
| Give to a few friends hand or smile | E |
| Like a generous lady now and awhile | E |
| But the sanctuary heart that none dare win | F |
| Keep holiest of holiest evermore | G |
| The crowd in the aisles may watch the door | G |
| The high priest only enters in | F |
| Mine my own without doubts or terrors | H |
| With all thy goodnesses all thy errors | H |
| Unto me and to me alone revealed | I |
| 'A spring shut up a fountain sealed ' | J |
| Many may praise thee praise mine as thine | K |
| Many may love thee I'll love them too | L |
| But thy heart of hearts pure faithful and true | L |
| Must be mine mine wholly and only mine | K |
| Mine God I thank Thee that Thou hast given | D |
| Something all mine on this side heaven | D |
| Something as much myself to be | A |
| As this my soul which I lift to Thee | A |
| Flesh of my flesh bone of my bone | M |
| Life of my life whom Thou dost make | N |
| Two to the world for the world's work's sake | N |
| But each unto each as in Thy sight one | D |
