Rhyme Scheme: AAAAAAA BCDECFF AAAAAA AGAGGAA| O the sweet sence of love's humilitie | A |
| Which feares displeasure in a dearest friend | A |
| The onely note of Truth's nobilitie | A |
| Whose worthy grace is graced without end | A |
| For who wants faith wants little of a friend | A |
| While faithfull love in humble truth approved | A |
| Doth euer Hue of God and man beloued | A |
| - | |
| Alas the little time of Nature's leave | B |
| To runne the course of her allotted care | C |
| Where idle shadowes the eie deceaue | D |
| That onely hunteth after Fortune's show | E |
| And bad must leaue it ere it be aware | C |
| Looke looke at heauen and let the world go by | F |
| Better to die to Hue than Hue to die | F |
| - | |
| Let pride be hatefull vnto euery state | A |
| It is a vice with vertue not allowed | A |
| And such a vice as vertue hath in hate | A |
| For vertue neuer makes the spirit prowde | A |
| And in advauncement of nobilitie | A |
| Gives greatest graces Truth's humilitie | A |
| - | |
| Which grace is gracious in the sight of God | A |
| Makes men as saints and women angells seeme | G |
| Makes sinne forgotten mercy vse no rod | A |
| And constant faith to prooue in great esteeme | G |
| While wisdome's care can neuer truth misdeem | G |
| But is in some a blessing of the highest | A |
| And to the nature of himself the nighest | A |
