Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEFE GHIHJEKELAMA CBDBGDFD| By your unnumbered charities | A |
| A miracle disclose | B |
| Lord of the Images whose love | C |
| The eyelids and the rose | B |
| Takes for a language and today | D |
| Tell to me what is said | E |
| By these men in a turnip field | F |
| And their unleavened bread | E |
| - | |
| For all things seem to figure out | G |
| The stirrings of your heart | H |
| And two men pick the turnips up | I |
| And two men pull the cart | H |
| And yet between the four of them | J |
| No word is ever said | E |
| Because the yeast was not put in | K |
| Which makes the human bread | E |
| But three men stare on vacancy | L |
| And one man strokes his knees | A |
| What is the meaning to be found | M |
| In such dark vowels as these | A |

| Lord of the Images whose love | C |
| The eyelid and the rose | B |
| Takes for a metaphor today | D |
| Beneath the warder's blows | B |
| The unleavened man did not cry out | G |
| Or turn his face away | D |
| Through such men in a turnip field | F |
| What is it that you say | D |
