To the full-voiced quire below,

In service high, and anthems clear,

As may with sweetness through mine ear

Dissolve me into ecstasies, 165

And bring all Heaven before mine eyes.

And may at last my weary age

Find out the peaceful hermitage,

The hairy gown and mossy cell,

Where I may sit, and rightly spell 170

Of every star that heaven doth shew,
