| 'Tis Love's caprice to freeze the bosom now | C |
| With bolts of ice with shafts of flame now burn | D |
| And which his lighter pang I scarce discern | D |
| Or hope or fear or whelming fire or snow | E |
| In heat I shiver and in cold I glow | E |
| Now thrill'd with love with jealousy now torn | F |
| As if her thin robe by a rival worn | F |
| Or veil had screen'd him from my vengeful blow | E |
| But more 'tis mine to burn by night by day | G |
| And how I love the death by which I die | H |
| Nor thought can grasp nor tongue of bard can sing | I |
| Not so my freezing fire impartially | B |
| She shines to all and who would speed his way | G |
| To that high beam in vain expands his fluttering wing | I |

| Love with hot zeal now burns the heart within | K |
| Now holds it fetter'd with a frozen fear | L |
| Leaving it doubtful to our judgment here | M |
| If hope or dread if flame or frost shall win | K |
| In June I shiver burn December in | K |
| Full of desires from jealousy ne'er clear | L |
| E'en as a lady who her loving fee | B |
| Hides 'neath a little veil of texture thin | K |
| Of the two ills the first is all mine own | N |
| By day by night to burn how sweet that pain | O |
| Dwells not in thought nor ever poet sings | P |
| Not so the other my fair flame is shown | N |
| She levels all who hopes the crest to gain | O |
| Of that proud light expands in vain his wings | P |
