Jane went to ParadiseA
That was only fairB
Good Sir Walter followed herC
And armed her up the stairB
Henry and TobiasD
And Miguel of SpainE
Stood with Shakespeare at the topF
To welcome JaneE
-
Then the Three ArchangelsG
Offered out of handH
Anything in Heaven's giftI
That she might commandH
Azrael's eyes upon herC
Raphael's wings aboveJ
Michael's sword against her heartK
Jane said quot Love quotK
-
Instantly the underC
Standing SeraphimL
Laid their fingers on their lipsM
And went to look for himL
Stole across the ZodiacN
Harnessed Charles's WainE
And whispered round the NebulaeO
quot Who loved Jane quotK
-
In a private limboL
Where none had thought to lookP
Sat a Hampshire gentlemanQ
Reading of a bookP
It was called PersuasionQ
And it told the plainE
Story of the love betweenR
Him and JaneE
-
He heard the questionQ
Circle Heaven throughS
Closed the book and answeredK
quot I did and do quotK
Quietly but speedilyO
As Captain Wentworth movedK
Entered into ParadiseA
The man Jane lovedK
-
Jane lies in Winchester blessed be her shadeK
Praise the Lord for making her and her for all she madeK
And while the stones of Winchester or Milson Street remainE
Glory Love and Honour unto England's JaneE
