    The poets name to mention I don’t intend at all
    He’s destitute of knowledge but professes the true creed.
    You muses assist him yous know he cannot read.
    Now to conclude and finish I have no more to say.
    I hope a train of angles have met them on the way
    To intercede with the blessed queen and gain them a happy shore
    We love the cross and do rejoice both now and ever more.
