| Our human nature could not be | A |
| Content with rest like this | B |
| And even bliss could cloy if we | A |
| Had nothing else but bliss | B |

| Great Nature's hand in every plan | O |
| Had laid in wise design | M |
| But what design or use is in | P |
| This theory of thine | M |

| If Heaven is but a mystic spell | T |
| Whose glowing visions thrall | U |
| Why should we have a life beyond | K |
| Why have a Heaven at all | U |
