Rhyme Scheme: ABABCCDDDD| Down in a valley as Alexis trips | A |
| Daphne sat sweetly sleeping | B |
| Soon as the wanton touch d her ruddy lips | A |
| She nicely falls aweeping | B |
| The wag full softly lifts her | C |
| And to and fro he sifts her | C |
| But when nor sighs Ah nor kisses mov d her pity | D |
| Nor sighs could move her pity | D |
| Nor tears could move her pity | D |
| With plaints he warbles forth this mournful ditty | D |
