Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEFBB| Thy gift thy tables are within my brain | A |
| Full charactered with lasting memory | B |
| Which shall above that idle rank remain | A |
| Beyond all date even to eternity | B |
| Or at the least so long as brain and heart | C |
| Have faculty by nature to subsist | D |
| Till each to razed oblivion yield his part | C |
| Of thee thy record never can be missed | D |
| That poor retention could not so much hold | E |
| Nor need I tallies thy dear love to score | F |
| Therefore to give them from me was I bold | E |
| To trust those tables that receive thee more | F |
| To keep an adjunct to remember thee | B |
| Were to import forgetfulness in me | B |
