Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDDC EFE GHH| O gentle gaze o eyes where beauty grows | A |
| Like little gardens full of amorous flowers | B |
| Where the bow of Love shoots his sharp arrows | A |
| And where my eyes have gazed for many hours | B |
| - | |
| O savage cruelty o felon heart | C |
| Binding me in so many rigorous chains | D |
| So many are my lovesick tears and pains | D |
| Burning is the ache of my tortured heart | C |

| Thus you my eyes so much delight have had | E |
| From looking in his eyes so much enjoyment | F |
| But you my heart the more you see them glad | E |
| - | |
| The more you languish the worse your torment | G |
| Then guess if there is any joy for me | H |
| Knowing my heart and eyes thus disagree | H |
