| - | |
| What time Apollo's chariot takes the skies | B |
| - | |
| And fain to fill with arrows from her eyes | B |
| - | |
| His empty quiver Love was standing there | A |
| - | |
| I saw two apples that her breast doth bear | A |
| - | |
| None such the close of the Hesperides | B |

| Yields nor hath Venus any such as these | B |

| Even such a bosom and so fair it was | B |

| Pure as the perfect work of Phidias | B |
| - | |
| That sad Andromeda's discomfiture | A |
| - | |
| Left bare when Perseus passed her on a day | C |
| - | |
| And pale as Death for fear of Death she lay | C |
| - | |
| With breast as marble cold as marble pure | A |
