Now her rival instinct led | J |
With her own powers impregnated | K |

Moses must die to live in Christ | W |
The seed be buried to live to green | U |
Perfection must begin from worst | V |

More full and grows to reach thereof | X |
The green plant yearns for its yellow fruit | Y |
Perfection always is a root | Y |
And joy a motion that cloth feed | Z |
Itself on light of its own speed | Z |
And round its radiant circle runs | A2 |
Creating and devouring suns | A2 |
