Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDDA| If dear Anthea my hard fate it be | A |
| To live some few sad hours after thee | A |
| Thy sacred corse with odours I will burn | B |
| And with my laurel crown thy golden urn | B |
| Then holding up there such religious things | C |
| As were time past thy holy filletings | C |
| Near to thy reverend pitcher I will fall | D |
| Down dead for grief and end my woes withal | D |
| So three in one small plot of ground shall lie | D |
