Rhyme Scheme: AABBBCCDDBBDDEFI would have loved there are no mates in heaven | A |
I would be great there is no pride in heaven | A |
I would have sung as doth the nightingale | B |
The summer's night beneath the moone pale | B |
But Saintes hymnes alone in heaven prevail | B |
My love my song my skill my high intent | C |
Have I within this seely book y pent | C |
And all that beauty which from every part | D |
I treasured still alway within mine heart | D |
Whether of form or face angelical | B |
Or herb or flower or lofty cathedral | B |
Upon these sheets below doth lie y spred | D |
In quaint devices deftly blazoned | D |
Lord in this tome to thee I sanctify | E |
The sinful fruits of worldly fantasy | F |
