Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDCCCCC| And has the earth lost its so spacious round | A |
| The sky its blue circumference above | B |
| That in this little chamber there is found | A |
| Both earth and heaven my universe of love | B |
| All that my God can give me or remove | C |
| Here sleeping save myself in mimic death | D |
| Sweet that in this small compass I behove | C |
| To live their living and to breathe their breath | D |
| Almost I wish that with one common sigh | C |
| We might resign all mundane care and strife | C |
| And seek together that transcendent sky | C |
| Where Father Mother Children Husband Wife | C |
| Together pant in everlasting life | C |
