| 1684 | A Monumental Memorial for Marine Mercy. Literary historians consider Steere's poem one of the finest celebrating a sea deliverance. Prompted by a nearly disastrous voyage to London in 1683, it interprets events as an allegory of the soul's redemption. |
| 1713 | The Daniel Catcher. Steere's most important poetic work includes "Earth Felicities," a poem in blank verse, unusual at the time, and "Caelestial Embassy," a nativity poem that argues against Puritan rejection of Christmas as a pagan practice of the Catholic Church. |
