Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDEEFFGGHIDDJJ| Come and let us live my Dear | A |
| Let us love and never fear | A |
| What the sourest Fathers say | B |
| Brightest Sol that dies today | B |
| Lives again as blithe tomorrow | C |
| But if we dark sons of sorrow | C |
| Set o then how long a Night | D |
| Shuts the Eyes of our short light | D |
| Then let amorous kisses dwell | E |
| On our lips begin to tell | E |
| A Thousand and a Hundred score | F |
| An Hundred and a Thousand more | F |
| Till another Thousand smother | G |
| That and that wipe off another | G |
| Thus at last when we have numb'red | H |
| Many a Thousand many a Hundred | I |
| We'll confound the reckoning quite | D |
| And lose ourselves in wild delight | D |
| While our joys so multiply | J |
| As shall mock the envious eye | J |
