| And O my love so lately | B |
| Did we wander yonder grove | S |
| And sit awhile sedately | B |
| For either you did there conclude | T |
| To do at length as I did | U |
| Or passion's fashion's turn'd a prude | T |
| And troth's an oath derided | U |
| - | |

| She | B |
| Yea my love and nay my love | Q |
| And ask me not to tell love | Q |
| While I delay'd an idle day | V |
| What 'twixt us there befell love | Q |
| Yet either I did sit beside | W |
| And do at length as you did | U |
| Or my delight is lightly by | A |
| An idle lie deluded | U |
