Rhyme Scheme: ABABCB DECFGF HBHBCB IHIHJH BBBBAB| Since thou and I have wandered from the highway | A |
| And found with hearts reborn | B |
| This swift and unimaginable byway | A |
| Unto the hills of morn | B |
| Shall not our love disdain the unworthy uses | C |
| Of the old time outworn | B |
| - | |
| I'll not entreat thy half unwilling graces | D |
| With humbly folded palms | E |
| Nor seek to shake thy proud defended places | C |
| With noise of vague alarms | F |
| Nor ask against my fortune's grim pursuing | G |
| The refuge of thy arms | F |
| - | |
| Thou'lt not withhold for pleasure vain and cruel | H |
| That which has long been mine | B |
| Nor overheap with briefly burning fuel | H |
| A fire of flame divine | B |
| Nor yield the key for life's profaner voices | C |
| To brawl within the shrine | B |
| - | |
| - | |
| But thou shalt tell me of thy queenly pleasure | I |
| All that I must fulfil | H |
| And I'll receive from out my royal treasure | I |
| What golden gifts I will | H |
| So that two realms supreme and undisputed | J |
| Shall be one kingdom still | H |
| - | |
| And our high hearts shall praise the beauty hidden | B |
| In starry minded scorn | B |
| By the same Lord who hath His servants bidden | B |
| To seek with eyes new born | B |
| This swift and unimaginable byway | A |
| Unto the hills of morn | B |
