Rhyme Scheme: AABB CCDD EEF GGHH IIJJ AAFF| With lifted feet hands still | A |
| I am poised and down the hill | A |
| Dart with heedful mind | B |
| The air goes by in a wind | B |

| Swifter and yet more swift | C |
| Till the heart with a mighty lift | C |
| Makes the lungs laugh the throat cry | D |

| Speed slackens now I float | I |
| Awhile in my airy boat | I |
| Till when the wheels scarce crawl | J |
| My feet to the treadles fall | J |

| Alas that the longest hill | A |
| Must end in a vale but still | A |
| Who climbs with toil wheresoe'er | F |
| Shall find wings waiting there | F |
