Rhyme Scheme: ABACDAEA FGFGFLong have I searched the Earth for liberty | A |
In desert places and lands far abroad | B |
Where neither Kings nor constables should be | A |
Nor any law of Man alas or God | C |
Freedom Equality and Brotherhood | D |
These were my quarries which eternally | A |
Fled from my footsteps fast as I pursued | E |
Sad phantoms of desire by land and sea | A |

See it is ended Sick and overborne | F |
By foes and fools and my long chase I lie | G |
Here in these walls with all life's souls forlorn | F |
Herded I wait and in my ears the cry | G |
Alas poor brothers equal in Man's scorn | F |
And free in God's good liberty to die '' | - |
