Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDEEFFGGHIFEAR not dear love that I'll reveal | A |
Those hours of pleasure we two steal | A |
No eye shall see nor yet the sun | B |
Descry what thou and I have done | B |
No ear shall hear our love but we | C |
Silent as the night will be | C |
The god of love himself whose dart | D |
Did first wound mine and then thy heart | D |
Shall never know that we can tell | E |
What sweets in stol'n embraces dwell | E |
This only means may find it out | F |
If when I die physicians doubt | F |
What caused my death and there to view | G |
Of all their judgements which was true | G |
Rip up my heart oh then I fear | H |
The world will see thy picture there | I |
