| Runs this poor river charg'd with streams of zeal | B |
| Returning thee the tribute of my duty | A |
| Which here my love my youth my plaints reveal | B |
| Here I unclasp the book of my charg'd soul | C |
| Where I have cast th'accounts of all my care | D |

| How they were spent for thee look what they are | E |
| Look on the dear expences of my youth | F |
| And see how just I reckon with thine eyes | G |
| Examine well they beauty in my truth | F |
| And cross my cares ere greater sums arise | G |
| Read it sweet maid though it be done but slightly | A |
| Who can show all his love doth love but lightly | A |
