Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDEECFGHII| Spring with the lark most comely bride and meet | A |
| Your eager bridegroom with auspicious feet | A |
| The morn's far spent and the immortal sun | B |
| Corals his cheek to see those rites not done | B |
| Fie lovely maid indeed you are too slow | C |
| When to the temple Love should run not go | C |
| Dispatch your dressing then and quickly wed | D |
| Then feast and coy't a little then to bed | D |
| This day is Love's day and this busy night | E |
| Is yours in which you challenged are to fight | E |
| With such an arm'd but such an easy foe | C |
| As will if you yield lie down conquer'd too | F |
| The field is pitch'd but such must be your wars | G |
| As that your kisses must outvie the stars | H |
| Fall down together vanquished both and lie | I |
| Drown'd in the blood of rubies there not die | I |
