| The heavenly airs from yon green laurel roll'd | C |
| Where Love to Phoebus whilom dealt his stroke | D |
| Where on my neck was placed so sweet a yoke | D |
| That freedom thence I hope not to behold | C |
| O'er me prevail as o'er that Arab old | C |
| Medusa when she changed him to an oak | D |
| Nor ever can the fairy knot be broke | D |
| Whose light outshines the sun not merely gold | C |
| I mean of those bright locks the curl d snare | E |
| Which folds and fastens with so sweet a grace | F |
| My soul whose humbleness defends alone | G |
| Her mere shade freezes with a cold despair | E |
| My heart and tinges with pale fear my face | F |
| And oh her eyes have power to make me stone | G |
