| In which a thousand torches flaming bright | B |
| Doe burne that to vs wretched earthly clods | A |
| In dreadful darknesse lend desired light | B |
| And all ye powers which in the same remayne | C |
| More then we men can fayne | C |
| Poure out your blessing on vs plentiously | D |

| That we may raise a large posterity | E |
| Which from the earth which they may long possesse | A |
| With lasting happinesse | A |
| Vp to your haughty pallaces may mount | F |
| And for the guerdon of theyr glorious merit | G |
| May heauenly tabernacles there inherit | G |
| Of blessed Saints for to increase the count | F |
| So let vs rest sweet loue in hope of this | A |
| And cease till then our tymely ioyes to sing | H |
| The woods no more vs answer nor our eccho ring | H |
