Rhyme Scheme: ABCAABBDEFEFGG| Give pardon bless egrave d soul to my bold cries | A |
| If they importune interrupt thy song | B |
| Which now with joyful notes thou sing'st among | C |
| The angel quiristers of th' heavenly skies | A |
| Give pardon eke sweet soul to my slow eyes | A |
| That since I saw thee now it is so long | B |
| And yet the tears that unto thee belong | B |
| To thee as yet they did not sacrifice | D |
| I did not know that thou wert dead before | E |
| I did not feel the grief I did sustain | F |
| The greater stroke astonisheth the more | E |
| Astonishment takes from us sense of pain | F |
| I stood amazed when others' tears begun | G |
| And now begin to weep when they have done | G |
