Rhyme Scheme: AABBCDEEFFGGHIJKLL| The fruit of love's desire is sweet | A |
| For any man and maid to eat | A |
| However ripened in time's air | B |
| No other can with it compare | B |
| 'Tis like those apples 'of such price | C |
| No tree can ever bear them twice ' | D |
| And only two may share it so | E |
| That they would all its sweetness know | E |
| It is so fine and fair a thing | F |
| And eaten with such passioning | F |
| The eaters seem themselves to be | G |
| Fed on each other's mystery | G |
| And when they have the sweet thing ate | H |
| Sigh for the lack of all things yet | I |
| For once 'tis bitten to the core | J |
| The dearest dream of life is o'er | K |
| And man and maid within time's waste | L |
| Another such may never taste | L |
