Rhyme Scheme: ABCBB ABDBB EBFBB ABGBB

O praise me not with your lips dear oneA
Though your tender words I prizeB
But dearer by far is the soulful gazeC
Of your eyes your beautiful eyesB
Your tender loving eyesB
-
O chide me not with your lips dear oneA
Though I cause your bosom sighsB
You can make repentance deeper farD
By your sad reproving eyesB
Your sorrowful troubled eyesB
-
Words at the best are but hollow soundsE
Above in the beaming skiesB
The constant stars say never a wordF
But only smile with their eyesB
Smile on with their lustrous eyesB
-
Then breathe no vow with your lips dear oneA
On the wing d wind speech fliesB
But I read the truth of your noble heartG
In your soulful speaking eyesB
In your deep and beautiful eyesB
