Rhyme Scheme: ABAC DEDE FBFB| Come down and dance ye in the toil | A |
| Of pleasures to a heat | B |
| But if to moisture let the oil | A |
| Of roses be your sweat | C |
| - | |
| Not only to yourselves assume | D |
| These sweets but let them fly | E |
| From this to that and so perfume | D |
| E'en all the standers by | E |

| As goddess Isis when she went | F |
| Or glided through the street | B |
| Made all that touched her with her scent | F |
| And whom she touched turn sweet | B |
