Rhyme Scheme: ABABABABCDCDBB| When Nature made her chief worke Stellas eyes | A |
| In colour blacke why wrapt she beames so bright | B |
| Would she in beamy blacke like Painter wise | A |
| Frame daintiest lustre mixt of shades and light | B |
| Or did she else that sober hue deuise | A |
| In obiect best to knitt and strength our sight | B |
| Least if no vaile these braue gleames did disguise | A |
| They sunlike should more dazle then delight | B |

| She euen in black doth make all beauties flow | C |
| Both so and thus she minding Loue should be | D |
| Plac'd euer there gaue him this mourning weede | B |
| To honour all their deaths who for her bleed | B |
