Rhyme Scheme: A BCBDCCCEFFGHEC| To Alexander Smith | A |
| - | |
| The stars we saw arise are high above | B |
| And yet our Evensong seems sung too soon | C |
| Good Night I lay my hand with such a love | B |
| As thou wert brother of my blood upon | D |
| Thy shoulder and methinks beneath the moon | C |
| Those sisters Anglia and Caledon | C |
| Lean towards each other Aye for Man is one | C |
| We are a host ruled by one trumpet call | E |
| Where each armed in his sort makes as he may | F |
| The general motion The well tuned array | F |
| We see yet to what victory in what wars | G |
| We see not but like the revolving stars | H |
| Move on ourselves The total march of all | E |
| Or men or stars God knows Lord lead us on | C |
