Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDCDEE

Diodati and I muse to tell the taleA
This stubborn I that Love was wont despiseB
And make a laughter of his snares unwiseB
Am fallen where honest feet will sometimes failA
Not golden tresses not a cheek vermeilA
Dazzle me thus but in a new world guiseB
A foreign Fair my heart beatifiesB
With mien where high souled modesty I hailA
Eyes softly splendent with a darkness dearC
A speech that more than one tongue vassal hathD
A voice that in the middle hemisphereC
Might make the tired moon wander from her pathD
While from her eyes such gracious flashes shootE
That stopping hard my ears were little bootE
