Rhyme Scheme: ABACABBABADCDB EFEFEGFGHHII JIJIJI| High stretched upon the swinging yard | A |
| I gather in the sheet | B |
| But it is hard | A |
| And stiff and one cries haste | C |
| Then He that is most dear in my regard | A |
| Of all the crew gives aidance meet | B |
| But from His hands and from His feet | B |
| A glory spreads wherewith the night is starred | A |
| Moreover of a cup most bitter sweet | B |
| With fragrance as of nard | A |
| And myrrh and cassia spiced | D |
| He proffers me to taste | C |
| Then I to Him Art Thou the Christ | D |
| He saith Thou say st | B |

| Like to an ox | E |
| That staggers neath the mortal blow | F |
| She grinds upon the rocks | E |
| Then straight and low | F |
| Leaps forth the levelled line and in our quarter locks | E |
| The cradle s rigged with swerving of the blast | G |
| We go | F |
| Our Captain last | G |
| Demands | H |
| Who fired that shot Each silent stands | H |
| Ah sweet perplexity | I |
| This too was He | I |

| I have an arbour wherein came a toad | J |
| Most hideous to see | I |
| Immediate seizing staff or goad | J |
| I smote it cruelly | I |
| Then all the place with subtle radiance glowed | J |
| I looked and it was He | I |
