Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCBEFEFAA| An euill spirit your beauty haunts me still | A |
| Where with alas I haue been long possest | B |
| Which ceaseth not to tempt me vnto ill | A |
| Nor giues me once but one pore minutes rest | B |
| In me it speakes whether I sleepe or wake | C |
| And when by meanes to driue it out I try | D |
| With greater torments then it me doth take | C |
| And tortures me in most extreamity | B |
| Before my face it layes all my dispaires | E |
| And hasts me on vnto a suddaine death | F |
| Now tempting me to drown my selfe in teares | E |
| And then in sighing to giue vp my breath | F |
| Thus am I still prouok'd to euery euill | A |
| By this good wicked spirit sweet Angel deuill | A |
