Rhyme Scheme: ABBACDDCEFGFHH| Because thou hast believ'd the wheels of life | A |
| Stand never idle but go always round | B |
| Not by their hands who vex the patient ground | B |
| Mov'd only but by genius in the strife | A |
| Of all its chafing torrents after thaw | C |
| Urg'd and to feed whose movement spinning sand | D |
| The feeble sons of pleasure set their hand | D |
| And in this vision of the general law | C |
| Hast labour'd with the foremost hast become | E |
| Laborious persevering serious firm | F |
| For this thy track across the fretful foam | G |
| Of vehement actions without scope or term | F |
| Call'd History keeps a splendour due to wit | H |
| Which saw one clue to life and follow'd it | H |
