| Rich Palermo sparkling Sherry | A |
| Some nectar else from Juno's dairy | A |
| Oh these draughts would make us merry | A |
| - | |
| Oh for a wench I deal in faces | B |
| And in other daintier things | C |
| Tickled am I with her embraces | D |
| Fine dancing in such fairy rings | C |

| But brave victuals feast the blood | G |
| For wenches wine and lusty cheer | H |
| Jove would leap down to surfeit here | I |
