Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EBEB FBFB BGBG BHB| As late each flower that sweetest blows | A |
| I pluck'd the Garden's pride | B |
| Within the petals of a Rose | A |
| A sleeping Love I 'spied | B |
| - | |
| Around his brows a beamy wreath | C |
| Of many a lucent hue | D |
| All purple glow'd his cheek beneath | C |
| Inebriate with the dew | D |

| I softly seiz'd th' unguarded Power | E |
| Nor scar'd his balmy rest | B |
| And plac'd him cag'd within the flower | E |
| On spotless Sara's breast | B |
| - | |
| But when unweeting of the guile | F |
| Awoke the pris'ner sweet | B |
| He struggled to escape awhile | F |
| And stamp'd his faery feet | B |
| - | |
| Ah soon the soul entrancing sight | B |
| Subdued th' impatient boy | G |
| He gaz'd he thrill'd with deep delight | B |
| Then clapp'd his wings for joy | G |
| - | |
| 'And O ' he cried 'Of magic kind | B |
| What charms this Throne endear | H |
| Some other Love let Venus find | B |
| I'll fix my empire here ' | - |
