| Tell her that goes | O |
| With song upon her lips | P |
| But sings not out the song nor knows | O |

| Might in new ages gain her worshippers | R |
| When our two dusts with Waller's shall be laid | L |
| Siftings on siftings in oblivion | S |
| Till change hath broken down | T |
| All things save beauty alone | D |
