Lady in bliss who by our Maker's feetC
As suited for thine excellent life aloneD
Art now enthroned in high and glorious seatC
Adorn'd with charms nor pearls nor purple ownD
O model high and rare of ladies sweetC
Now in his face to whom all things are knownD
Look on my love with that pure faith repleteC
As long my verse and truest tears have shownD
And know at last my heart on earth to theeE
Was still as now in heaven nor wish'd in lifeF
More than beneath thine eyes' bright sun to beE
Wherefore to recompense the tedious strifeF
Which turn'd my liege heart from the world awayG
Pray that I soon may come with thee to stayG

Lady whose gentle virtues have obtain'dH
For thee a dwelling with thy Maker blestI
To sit enthroned above in angels' vestI
Whose lustre gold nor purple had attain'dH
Ah thou who here the most exalted reign'dH
Now through the eyes of Him who knows each breastI
That heart's pure faith and love thou canst attestI
Which both my pen and tears alike sustain'dH
Thou knowest too my heart was thine on earthJ
As now it is in heaven no wish was thereA
But to avow thine eyes its only shrineK
Thus to reward the strife which owes its birthJ
To thee who won my each affection'd careA
Pray God to waft me to his home and thineK
