Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDBDDEDEAF| One day I wrote her name upon the strand | A |
| But came the waves and washed it away | B |
| Agayne I wrote it with a second hand | A |
| But came the tyde and made my paynes his pray | B |
| Vayne man sayd she that doest in vaine assay | C |
| A mortall thing so to immortalize | D |
| For I my selve shall lyke to this decay | B |
| and eek my name bee wyped out lykewize | D |
| Not so quod I let baser things devize | D |
| To dy in dust but you shall live by fame | E |
| My verse your vertues rare shall eternize | D |
| And in the heavens wryte your glorious name | E |
| Where whenas death shall all the world subdew | A |
| Our love shall live and later life renew | F |
