Rhyme Scheme: ABCAABCADEDEFF| Morpheus the liuely sonne of deadly Sleepe | A |
| Witnesse of life to them that liuing die | B |
| A prophet oft and oft an historie | C |
| A poet eke as humours fly or creepe | A |
| Since thou in me so sure a pow'r dost keepe | A |
| That neuer I with clos'd vp sense do lie | B |
| But by thy worke my Stella I descrie | C |
| Teaching blind eyes both how to smile and weepe | A |
| Vouchsafe of all acquaintance this to tell | D |
| Whence hast thou ivory rubies pearl and gold | E |
| To shew her skin lips teeth and head so well | D |
| Foole answers he no Indes such treasures hold | E |
| But from thy heart while my sire charmeth thee | F |
| Sweet Stellas image I do steal to mee | F |
