Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACADACD| What beast in wilderness or cultured field | A |
| The lively beauty of the leopard shows | B |
| What flower in meadow ground or garden grows | B |
| That to the towering lily doth not yield | A |
| Let both meet only on thy royal shield | A |
| Go forth great King claim what thy birth bestows | B |
| Conquer the Gallic lily which thy foes | B |
| Dare to usurp thou hast a sword to wield | A |
| And Heaven will crown the right The mitred Sire | C |
| Thus spake and lo a Fleet for Gaul addrest | A |
| Ploughs her bold course across the wondering seas | D |
| For sooth to say ambition in the breast | A |
| Of youthful heroes is no sullen fire | C |
| But one that leaps to meet the fanning breeze | D |
