Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEDE FGHFGO fly my soul what hangs upon | A |
Thy drooping wings | B |
And weighs them down | C |
With love of gaudy mortal things | B |
- | |
The Sun is now i' the east each shade | D |
As he doth rise | E |
Is shorter made | D |
That earth may lessen to our eyes | E |

Oh be not careless then and play | F |
Until the star of peace | G |
Hide all his beams in dark recess | H |
Poor pilgrims needs must lose their way | F |
When all the shadows do increase | G |
