Rhyme Scheme: AAABC BAD ADAE EFBG HBAIJ| Tis Evanoe's | A |
| A house not made with hands | A |
| But out somewhere beyond the worldly ways | A |
| Her gold is spread above around inwoven | B |
| Strange ways and walls are fashioned out of it | C |
| - | |
| And I have seen my Lady in the sun | B |
| Her hair was spread about a sheaf of wings | A |
| And red the sunlight was behind it all | D |
| - | |
| And I have seen her there within her house | A |
| With six great sapphires hung along the wall | D |
| Low panel shaped a level with her knees | A |
| All her robe was woven of pale gold | E |
| - | |
| There are there many rooms and all of gold | E |
| Of woven walls deep patterned of email | F |
| Of beaten work and through the claret stone | B |
| Set to some weaving comes the aureate light | G |
| - | |
| Here am I come perforce my love of her | H |
| Behold mine adoration | B |
| Maketh me clear and there are powers in this | A |
| Which played on by the virtues of her soul | I |
| Break down the four square walls of standing time | J |
