| The Darling of a Father Good and Wise | B |
| The Vertue which a Vertuous Age did prize | B |
| The Beauty Excellent even to those were Faire | C |

| The Star that 'bove her Orb did always move | D |
| And yet the Noblest did not Hate but Love | E |
| And those who most upon their Title stood | F |

| As I in Waves this Paragon have drown'd | K |
| The Nation next and King I will confound | K |
