Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDCDCD| Venus to thee the Lesbian Muse shall sing | A |
| The song which Myttellenian youths admir'd | B |
| when Echo am'rous of the strain inspir'd | B |
| Bade the wild rocks with madd'ning plaudits ring | A |
| Attend my pray'r O Queen of rapture bring | A |
| To these fond arms he whom my soul has fir'd | B |
| From these fond arms remov'd yet still desir'd | B |
| Though love exulting spreads his varying wing | A |
| Oh source of ev'ry joy of ev'ry care | C |
| Blest Venus Goddess of the zone divine | D |
| To Phaon's bosom Phaon's victim bear | C |
| So shall her warmest tend'rest vows be thine | D |
| For Venus Sappho shall a wreath prepare | C |
| And Love be crown'd immortal as the Nine | D |
