| Whence could Love take the gold and from what vein | C |
| To form those bright twin locks What thorn could grow | D |
| Those roses And what mead that white bestow | D |
| Of the fresh dews which pulse and breath obtain | C |
| Whence came those pearls that modestly restrain | C |
| Accents which courteous sweet and rare can flow | D |
| And whence those charms that so divinely show | D |
| Spread o'er a face serene as heaven's blue plain | C |
| Taught by what angel or what tuneful sphere | E |
| Was that celestial song which doth dispense | F |
| Such potent magic to the ravish'd ear | G |
| What sun illumed those bright commanding eyes | H |
| Which now look peaceful now in hostile guise | H |
| Now torture me with hope and now with fear | E |

| Say from what vein did Love procure the gold | J |
| To make those sunny tresses From what thorn | K |
| Stole he the rose and whence the dew of morn | K |
| Bidding them breathe and live in Beauty's mould | J |
| What depth of ocean gave the pearls that told | J |
| Those gentle accents sweet though rarely born | K |
| Whence came so many graces to adorn | K |
| That brow more fair than summer skies unfold | J |
| Oh say what angels lead what spheres control | L |
| The song divine which wastes my life away | M |
| Who can with trifles now my senses move | N |
| What sun gave birth unto the lofty soul | L |
| Of those enchanting eyes whose glances stray | M |
| To burn and freeze my heart the sport of Love | O |
