Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDEFGHHII| For all thy many courtesies to me | A |
| Nothing I have my Crofts to send to thee | A |
| For the requital save this only one | B |
| Half of my just remuneration | B |
| For since I've travell'd all this realm throughout | C |
| To seek and find some few immortals out | C |
| To circumspangle this my spacious sphere | D |
| As lamps for everlasting shining here | E |
| And having fix'd thee in mine orb a star | F |
| Amongst the rest both bright and singular | G |
| The present age will tell the world thou art | H |
| If not to th' whole yet satisfi'd in part | H |
| As for the rest being too great a sum | I |
| Here to be paid I'll pay't i' th' world to come | I |
