Rhyme Scheme: AAA BCB DDE FFG HII

Have have ye no regard all yeA
Who pass this way to pity MeA
Who am a man of miseryA
-
A man both bruis'd and broke and oneB
Who suffers not here for Mine ownC
But for My friends' transgressionB
-
Ah Sion's daughters do not fearD
The cross the cords the nails the spearD
The myrrh the gall the vinegarE
-
For Christ your loving Saviour hathF
Drunk up the wine of God's fierce wrathF
Only there's left a little frothG
-
Less for to taste than for to showH
What bitter cups had been your dueI
Had He not drank them up for youI
