Rhyme Scheme: ABABCCD CDEDFFD| Eagle of flowers I see thee stand | A |
| And on the sun's noon glory gaze | B |
| With eye like his thy lids expand | A |
| And fringe their disk with golden rays | B |
| Though fix'd on earth in darkness rooted there | C |
| Light is thine element thy dwelling air | C |
| Thy prospect heaven | D |
| - | |
| So would mine eagle soul descry | C |
| Beyond the path where planets run | D |
| The light of immortality | E |
| The splendour of creation's sun | D |
| Though sprung from earth and hast'ning to the tomb | F |
| In hope a flower of paradise to bloom | F |
| I took to heaven | D |
