Rhyme Scheme: ABBBCBBCBBBDDB| O how the pleasant ayres of true loue be | A |
| Infected by those vapours which arise | B |
| From out that noysome gulfe which gaping lies | B |
| Betweene the iawes of hellish Ielousie | B |
| A monster others harme selfe miserie | C |
| Beauties plague Vertues scourge succour of lies | B |
| Who his owne ioy to his owne hurt applies | B |
| And onely cherish doth with iniurie | C |
| Who since he hath by Natures speciall grace | B |
| So piercing pawes as spoyle when they embrace | B |
| So nimble feet as stirre still though on thornes | B |
| So many eyes ay seeking their owne woe | D |
| So ample eares as neuer good newes know | D |
| Is it not euill that such a deuil wants hornes | B |
