Rhyme Scheme: ABACD EFEFD GEGEH| Whatever seemed to reign within my breast | A |
| Ere now or reigned in the true sovereign's room | B |
| Love has dethroned strong Love has dispossessed | A |
| Like a glad master come to his own home | C |
| Love is my lord I call upon his name | D |
| - | |
| Aimless I lived but now my aims are flown | E |

| So that Love lead my ever faithful feet | G |

| Somehow somewhere the end must needs be sweet | G |
| However rough the road by which we go | E |
| Love is my trust for since I love I am | H |
