| Nine mystic revolutions of the spheres | B |
| Since Dante's birth and lo a star new born | C |
| Shining in heaven and like a lark at morn | C |
| Springing to meet it straight in all men's ears | B |
| A strange new song which through the listening years | B |
| Grew deep as lonely sobbing from the thorn | C |
| Rising at eve shot through with bitter scorn | C |
| Full throated with the ecstasy of tears | D |

| Long since that star arose that song upsprang | E |
| That shine and sing in heaven above us yet | F |
| Since thy white childhood glorious Beatrice | G |
| Dawned like a blessed angel upon his | H |
| Thy star it was that did his song beget | F |
| Star shining for us still because he sang | E |
