| Sparrow of Love so sharp to peck | A |
| Arrow of Love I bare my neck | A |
| Down to the bosom See no fleck | A |
| - | |
| Of blood I have never a wound I go | A |
| Forth to the greenwood Yet heigh ho | A |
| What 'neath my girdle flutters so | A |
| - | |
| 'Tis not a bird and yet hath wings | L |
| 'Tis not an arrow yet it stings | L |
| While in the wound it nests and sings | L |
| Heigh ho | A |
| - | |
| He Of Arion of Arion | E |
| That wound thou shalt learn | E |
| What nothings 'tis made of | M |
| And soft pretty soothings | L |
| In shade of the fern | E |
| - | |
| She When maids have a mind to | N |
| Man's word they rely on | E |
| Old warning are blind to | N |
| I come then I come | I |
| To walk with Arion | E |
| Where green woods are dumb | I |

| - | |
| He Dear my love and O my love | M |
| And O my love so lately | G |
| Did we wander yonder grove | O |
| And sit awhile sedately | G |
| For either you did there conclude | P |
| To do at length as I did | Q |
| Or passion's fashion's turn'd a prude | P |
| And troth's an oath derided | Q |
| - | |
| She Yea my love and nay my love | M |
| And ask me not to tell love | M |
| While I delay'd an idle day | R |
| What 'twixt us there befell love | M |
| Yet either I did sit beside | S |
| And do at length as you did | Q |
| Or my delight is lightly by | - |
| An idle lie deluded | Q |
