Rhyme Scheme: AABCCCDDEE| Tell if thou canst and truly whence doth come | A |
| This camphire storax spikenard galbanum | A |
| These musks these ambers and those other smells | B |
| Sweet as the Vestry of the Oracles | C |
| I'll tell thee mdash while my Julia did unlace | C |
| Her silken bodice but a breathing space | C |
| The passive air such odour then assumed | D |
| As when to Jove great Juno goes perfumed | D |
| Whose pure immortal body doth transmit | E |
| A scent that fills both heaven and earth with it | E |
