Rhyme Scheme: A BCBCDEDEFGHIJK| Another to the River Anker | A |
| - | |
| Clear Anker on whose silver sanded shore | B |
| My soul shrin'd saint my fair Idea lies | C |
| O blessed brook whose milk white swans adore | B |
| The crystal stream refined by her eyes | C |
| Where sweet myrrh breathing Zephyr in the Spring | D |
| Gently distils his nectar dropping showers | E |
| Where nightingales in Arden sit and sing | D |
| Among the dainty dew impearled flowers | E |
| Say thus fair Brook when thou shalt see thy Queen | F |
| Lo here thy shepherd spent his wand'ring years | G |
| And in these shades dear nymph he oft hath been | H |
| And here to thee he sacrific'd his tears | I |
| Fair Arden thou my Tempe art alone | J |
| And thou sweet Anker art my Helicon | K |
