Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDDCCD| So highest poets painters owe to Thee | A |
| Their being and disciples none were there | B |
| Hadst Thou not been Thou art the centre where | B |
| The Truth did find an infinite form and she | A |
| Left not the earth again but made it be | A |
| One of her robing rooms where she doth wear | B |
| All forms of revelation Artists bear | B |
| Tapers in acolyte humility | A |
| O Poet Painter soul of all thy art | C |
| Went forth in making artists Pictures No | D |
| But painters who in love should ever show | D |
| To earnest men glad secrets from God's heart | C |
| So in the desert grass and wild flowers start | C |
| When through the sand the living waters go | D |
