Rhyme Scheme: AAAAABACDADAEE| REtourne agayne my forces late dismayd | A |
| Vnto the siege by you abandon'd quite | A |
| great shame it is to leaue like one afrayd | A |
| so fayre a peece for one repulse so light | A |
| Gaynst such strong castles needeth greater might | A |
| then those small forts which ye were wont belay | B |

| those engins can the proudest loue conuert | A |
| And if those fayle fall downe and dy before her | E |
| so dying liue and liuing do adore her | E |
