Rhyme Scheme: ABCAD EFEEF GHGGH| All my past life is mine no more | A |
| The flying hours are gone | B |
| Like transitory dreams given o'er | C |
| Whose images are kept in store | A |
| By memory alone | D |
| - | |
| The time that is to come is not | E |
| How can it then be mine | F |
| The present moment 's all my lot | E |
| And that as fast as it is got | E |
| Phillis is only thine | F |

| Then talk not of inconstancy | G |
| False hearts and broken vows | H |
| If I by miracle can be | G |
| This live long minute true to thee | G |
| 'Tis all that Heaven allows | H |
