| The bright eyes which so struck my fenceless side | C |
| That they alone which harm'd can heal the smart | D |
| Beyond or power of herbs or magic art | D |
| Or stone which oceans from our shores divide | C |
| The chance of other love have so denied | C |
| That one sweet thought alone contents my heart | D |
| From following which if ne'er my tongue depart | D |
| Pity the guided though you blame the guide | C |
| These are the bright eyes which in every land | E |
| But most in its own shrine my heart adored | F |
| Have spread the triumphs of my conquering lord | F |
| These are the same bright eyes which ever stand | E |
| Burning within me e'en as vestal fires | A |
| In singing which my fancy never tires | A |

| Not all the spells of the magician's art | D |
| Not potent herbs nor travel o'er the main | H |
| But those sweet eyes alone can soothe my pain | H |
| And they which struck the blow must heal the smart | D |
| Those eyes from meaner love have kept my heart | D |
| Content one single image to retain | H |
| And censure but the medium wild and vain | H |
| If ill my words their honey'd sense impart | D |
| These are those beauteous eyes which never fail | I |
| To prove Love's conquest wheresoe'er they shine | J |
| Although my breast hath oftenest felt their fire | G |
| These are those beauteous eyes which still assail | I |
| And penetrate my soul with sparks divine | J |
| So that of singing them I cannot tire | G |
