Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDDDDEFEGHH| Cupid I hate thee which I'de haue thee know | A |
| A naked Starueling euer may'st thou be | B |
| Poore Rogue goe pawne thy Fascia and thy Bow | C |
| For some few Ragges wherewith to couer thee | B |
| Or if thou'lt not thy Archerie forbeare | D |
| To some base Rustick doe thy selfe preferre | D |
| And when Corne's sowne or growne into the Eare | D |
| Practise thy Quiuer and turne Crow keeper | D |
| Or being Blind as fittest for the Trade | E |
| Goe hyre thy selfe some bungling Harpers Boy | F |
| They that are blind are Minstrels often made | E |
| So may'st thou liue to thy faire Mothers Ioy | G |
| That whilst with MARS she holdeth her old way | H |
| Thou her Blind Sonne may'st sit by them and play | H |
