Rhyme Scheme: ABABBCBCCBCBDDYE tradefull Merchants that with weary toyle | A |
do seeke most pretious things to make your gain | B |
and both the Indias of their treasures spoile | A |
what needeth you to seeke so farre in vaine | B |
For loe my loue doth in her selfe containe | B |
all this worlds riches that may farre be found | C |
if Saphyres loe her eies be Saphyres plaine | B |
if Rubies loe hir lips be Rubies found | C |
If Pearles hir teeth be pearles both pure and round | C |
if Yuorie her forhead yuory weene | B |
if Gold her locks are finest gold on ground | C |
if siluer her faire hands are siluer sheene | B |
But that which fairest is but few behold | D |
her mind adornd with vertues manifold | D |
