Rhyme Scheme: ABBACDDCEFFGHCCH| 'In Paris at the Louvre there have I seen | A |
| The sumptuously feathered angel pierce | B |
| Prone Lucifer descending Looked he fierce | B |
| Showing the fight a fair one Too serene | A |
| The young Pharsalians did not disarray | C |
| Less willingly their locks of floating silk | D |
| That suckling mouth of his upon the milk | D |
| Of heaven might still be feasting through the fray | C |
| Oh Raphael when men the Fiend do fight | E |
| They conquer not upon such easy terms | F |
| Half serpent in the struggle grow these worms | F |
| And does he grow half human all is right ' | G |
| This to my Lady in a distant spot | H |
| Upon the theme While mind is mastering clay | C |
| Gross clay invades it If the spy you play | C |
| My wife read this Strange love talk is it not | H |
