| Two Cytherean doves | B |
| The same O cruel sweet | A |
| As were the Queen of Love's | B |
| They brush my dreaming brows | C |
| With silver fluttering beat | A |
| Here in your golden house | D |
| Beneath your feet | A |
| - | |
| No man that draweth breath | E |
| Is in such happy case | F |
| My heart to itself saith | E |
| Though kings gaze on her face | F |
| I would not change my place | F |
| To lie here is more sweet | A |
| Here at her feet | A |
| - | |
| As one in a green land | G |
| Beneath a rose bush lies | H |
| Two petals in his hand | G |
| With shut and dreaming eyes | H |
| And hears the rustling stir | I |
| As the young morning goes | J |
| Shaking abroad the myrrh | I |
| Of each awakened rose | J |
| So to me lying there | K |
| Comes the soft breath of her | I |
| O cruel sweet | A |
| There at her feet | A |
| - | |
| O little careless feet | A |
| That scornful tread | L |
| Upon my dreaming head | L |
| As little as the rose | J |
| Of him who lies there knows | J |
| Nor of what dreams may be | M |
| Beneath your feet | A |
| Know you of me | M |
| Ah dreams of your fair head | L |
| Its golden treasure spread | L |
| And all your moonlit snows | J |
| Yea all your beauty's rose | J |
| That blooms to day so fair | K |
| And smells so sweet | A |
| Shoulders of ivory | M |
| And breasts of myrrh | I |
| Under my feet | A |
