Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEGHHWhilst yet mine eyes do surfeit with delight | A |
My woful heart imprisoned in my breast | B |
Wisheth to be transform d to my sight | A |
That it like those by looking might be blest | B |
But whilst mine eyes thus greedily do gaze | C |
Finding their objects over soon depart | D |
These now the other's happiness do praise | C |
Wishing themselves that they had been my heart | D |
That eyes were heart or that the heart were eyes | E |
As covetous the other's use to have | F |
But finding nature their request denies | E |
This to each other mutually they crave | G |
That since the one cannot the other be | H |
That eyes could think of that my heart could see | H |
