What coastes to trace I minde,
I Iesu alwayes would:
Howe glad if I him finde,
But blisse if I him holde.

Then clipping and kissing,
That passeth pleasure all:
In these without staying,
I will to Iesus call.

Nowe what I sought I finde,
And founde I holde at laste:
For Iesus loue I pinde,
And burnt within full faste.

All wisedome be to thée.
And to thy father glory,
The holy ghost prayse we,
One God in persons thrée.
Amen.
