Rhyme Scheme: ABBBCBBDBBECEC| What traveller soever wander here | A |
| In quest of peace and what is best of pleasure | B |
| Let not his hope be overcast and drear | B |
| Because I Death am here to fix the measure | B |
| Of life even in blameless Arcady | C |
| Bay laurel myrtle ivy never sere | B |
| And fields flower decorated all the year | B |
| And streams that carry secrets to the sea | D |
| And hills that hold back something evermore | B |
| Though wild their speech with clouds in thunder roar | B |
| Yea every sylvan sight and peaceful tone | E |
| Are thine to give thy days their purer zest | C |
| Let not the legend grieve thee on this stone | E |
| I Death am here What then My name is Rest | C |
