Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDEEFF| Nor oils of balmy scene produce | A |
| Nor mirror for Minerva's use | A |
| Ye nymphs who lave her she array'd | B |
| In genuine beauty scorns their aid | B |
| Not even when they left the skies | C |
| To seek on Ida's head the prize | C |
| From Paris' hand did Juno deign | D |
| Or Pallas in the crystal plain | D |
| Of Simois' stream her locks to trace | E |
| Or in the mirror's polished face | E |
| Though Venus oft with anxious care | F |
| Adjusted twice a single hair | F |
