Rhyme Scheme: ABACDEFA GBGBHHIJ

The voice which I did more esteemA
Than music in her sweetest keyB
Those eyes which unto me did seemA
More comfortable than the dayC
These now by me as they have beenD
Shall never more be heard or seenE
But what I once enjoyed in themF
Shall seem hereafter as a dreamA
-
All earthly comforts vanish thusG
So little hold of them have weB
That we from them or they from usG
May in a moment vanished beB
Yet we are neither just nor wiseH
If present mercies we despiseH
Or mind not how there may be madeI
A thankful use of what we hadJ
