Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEEFF| Fair was the dawn and but e'en now the skies | A |
| Show'd like to cream inspir'd with strawberries | B |
| But on a sudden all was chang'd and gone | C |
| That smil'd in that first sweet complexion | D |
| Then thunder claps and lightning did conspire | E |
| To tear the world or set it all on fire | E |
| What trust to things below whenas we see | F |
| As men the heavens have their hypocrisy | F |
