Rhyme Scheme: ABCCBD EFGGFE HEIIEHHer soul from earth to Heaven lies | A |
Like the ladder of the vision | B |
Whereon go | C |
To and fro | C |
In ascension and demission | B |
Star flecked feet of Paradise | D |
- | |
Now she is drawn up from me | E |
All my angels wet eyed tristful | F |
Gaze from great | G |
Heaven's gate | G |
Like pent children very wistful | F |
That below a playmate see | E |

Dream dispensing face of hers | H |
Ivory port which loosed upon me | E |
Wings I wist | I |
Whose amethyst | I |
Trepidations have forgone me | E |
Hesper's filmy traffickers | H |
