Rhyme Scheme: ABACDD EAEAFF| Dearest do not you delay me | A |
| Since thou knowest I must be gone | B |
| Wind and tide 'tis thought doth stay me | A |
| But 'tis wind that must be blown | C |
| From that breath whose native smell | D |
| Indian odours far excel | D |

| Oh then speak thou fairest fair | E |
| Kill not him that vows to serve thee | A |
| But perfume this neighboring air | E |
| Else dull silence sure will sterve me | A |
| 'Tis a word that's quickly spoken | F |
| Which being restrained a heart is broken | F |
