| Thrice sit thou mute in this enchanted chair | A |
| Then thrice three times tie up this true love's knot | B |
| And murmur soft She will or she will not | B |

| Go burn these pois'nous weeds in yon blue fire | C |
| These screech owl's feathers and this prickling briar | C |

| Then come you fairies dance with me a round | F |
| Melt her hard heart with your melodious sound | F |
| In vain are all the charms I can devise | G |
| She hath an art to break them with her eyes | G |
