| At an epoch of my prime | A |
| Mornings beryl bespread | B |

| However this chanced to be | D |
| It is too full for me | D |

| Anon and yet anon | F |
| And sweetness fell around | B |
| Like manna on the ground | B |

| I am not worthy this | H |
| Must it not go amiss | H |
| Well let the end foreseen | F |
| Come duly I am serene | F |
| And it came | G |
