Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CBCB DBDB EE| Like truthless dreams so are my joys expired | A |

| Of all which passed the sorrow only stays | B |
| - | |
| My lost delights now clean from sight of land | C |
| Have left me all alone in unknown ways | B |

| I only wail the wrong of death's delays | B |
| Whose sweet spring spent whose summer well nigh done | D |
| Of all which passed the sorrow only stays | B |
| - | |
| Whom care forewarns ere age and winter cold | E |
| To haste me hence to find my fortune's fold | E |
