Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDEEEE| Sweet Amarillis by a spring's | A |
| Soft and soul melting murmurings | A |
| Slept and thus sleeping thither flew | B |
| A Robin red breast who at view | B |
| Not seeing her at all to stir | C |
| Brought leaves and moss to cover her | C |
| But while he perking there did pry | D |
| About the arch of either eye | D |
| The lid began to let out day | E |
| At which poor Robin flew away | E |
| And seeing her not dead but all disleaved | E |
| He chirpt for joy to see himself deceived | E |
