Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOP| I have experienc'd | A |
| The worst the World can wreak on me the worst | B |
| That can make Life indifferent yet disturb | C |
| With whisper'd Discontents the dying prayer | D |
| I have beheld the whole of all wherein | E |
| My Heart had any interest in this Life | F |
| To be disrent and torn from off my Hopes | G |
| That nothing now is left Why then live on | H |
| That Hostage which the world had in it's keeping | I |
| Given by me as a Pledge that I would live | J |
| That Hope of Her say rather that pure Faith | K |
| In her fix'd Love which held me to keep truce | L |
| With the Tyranny of Life is gone ah whither | M |
| What boots it to reply 'tis gone and now | N |
| Well may I break this Pact this League of Blood | O |
| That ties me to myself and break I shall | P |
