Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDDCCD| There Buonarotti stands thy statue Take | A |
| Possession of the form inherit it | B |
| Go forth upon the earth in likeness fit | B |
| As with a trumpet cry at morning wake | A |
| The sleeping nations with light's terror shake | A |
| The slumber from their hearts and where they sit | B |
| Let them leap up aghast as at a pit | B |
| Agape beneath I hear him answer make | A |
| Alas I dare not I could not inform | C |
| That image I revered as I did trace | D |
| I will not dim the glory of its grace | D |
| Nor with a feeble spirit mock the enorm | C |
| Strength on its brow Thou cam'st God's thought thy form | C |
| Living the large significance of thy face | D |
