Rhyme Scheme: ABBB CDCE BFBF GHGH| How sweet I roam'd from field to field | A |
| And tasted all the summer's pride | B |
| 'Til the prince of love beheld | B |
| Who in the sunny beams did glide | B |
| - | |
| He shew'd me lilies for my hair | C |
| And blushing roses for my brow | D |
| He led me through his garden fair | C |
| Where all his golden pleasures grow | E |
| - | |
| With sweet May dews my wings were wet | B |
| And Phoebus fir'd my vocal rage | F |
| He caught me in his silken net | B |
| And shut me in his golden cage | F |
| - | |
| He loves to sit and hear me sing | G |
| Then laughing sports and plays with me | H |
| Then stretches out my golden wing | G |
| And mocks my loss of liberty | H |
