| 'Hold little blue eyed page ' | - |
| So cried the watchers surly | B |
| Stern to his pretty rage | C |
| And golden hair so curly | B |
| 'Methinks your satin cloak | D |
| Masks something bulky under | E |
| I take this as no joke | D |
| Oh thief with stolen plunder ' | - |

| 'I am of high repute | F |
| And famed among the truthful | G |
| This silver handled lute | F |
| Is meet for one still youthful | G |
| Who goes to keep a tryst | H |
| With her who is his dearest | I |
| I charge you to desist | H |
| My cause is of the clearest ' | - |

| But guardsmen are so sharp | J |
| Their eyes are as the lynx's | K |
| 'That's neither lute nor harp | J |
| Your mark is not the minxes | K |
| Your loving we dispute | F |
| That string of steel so cruel | G |
| For music does not suit | F |
| You go to fight a duel ' | - |
