| Down cold snow stretches of our bitter time | B |
| When windy shams and the rain mocking sleet | C |
| Of Trade have cased us in such icy rime | B |
| That hearts are scarcely hot enough to beat | C |
| Thy fame O Lady of the lofty eyes | D |
| Doth fall along the age like as a lane | E |
| Of Spring in whose most generous boundaries | F |
| Full many a frozen virtue warms again | G |
| To day I saw the pale much burdened form | B |
| Of Charity come limping o'er the line | H |
| And straighten from the bending of the storm | B |
| And flush with stirrings of new strength divine | H |
| Such influence and sweet gracious impulse came | B |
| Out of the beams of thine immortal name | B |
