Rhyme Scheme: ABCAADCAEFFEGG| By miracles exceeding power of man | A |
| He faith in some envy in some begat | B |
| For what weak spirits admire ambitious hate | C |
| In both affections many to Him ran | A |
| But O the worst are most they will and can | A |
| Alas and do unto th' Immaculate | D |
| Whose creature Fate is now prescribe a fate | C |
| Measuring self life's infinity to span | A |
| Nay to an inch Lo where condemned He | E |
| Bears His own cross with pain yet by and by | F |
| When it bears him He must bear more and die | F |
| Now Thou art lifted up draw me to Thee | E |
| And at Thy death giving such liberal dole | G |
| Moist with one drop of Thy blood my dry soul | G |
