Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDEFGHIHJJ| O how thy worth with manners may I sing | A |
| When thou art all the better part of me | B |
| What can mine own praise to mine own self bring | A |
| And what is't but mine own when I praise thee | B |
| Even for this let us divided live | C |
| And our dear love lose name of single one | D |
| That by this separation I may give | E |
| That due to thee which thou deserv'st alone | F |
| O absence what a torment wouldst thou prove | G |
| Were it not thy sour leisure gave sweet leave | H |
| To entertain the time with thoughts of love | I |
| Which time and thoughts so sweetly doth deceive | H |
| And that thou teachest how to make one twain | J |
| By praising him here who doth hence remain | J |
