| The face I love so dearly | A |

| Or black eyed bean flower blebbed with dew | B |

| Than apple flowers or violets blue | B |
| Is she I love so dearly | A |

| Than woodbine upon branches thin | C |
| The clover flower all sweets within | C |
| Which pensive bees do gather in | C |
| Three times as sweet or nearly | A |
| Is the cheek the eye the lip the chin | C |
| Of her I love so dearly | A |
