Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEDFGFGFHI| So oft have I invoked thee for my Muse | A |
| And found such fair assistance in my verse | B |
| As every alien pen hath got my use | C |
| And under thee their poesy disperse | B |
| Thine eyes that taught the dumb on high to sing | D |
| And heavy ignorance aloft to fly | E |
| Have added feathers to the learn egrave d's wing | D |
| And given grace a double majesty | F |
| Yet be most proud of that which I compile | G |
| Whose influence is thine and born of thee | F |
| In others' works thou dost but mend the style | G |
| And arts with thy sweet graces grac egrave d be | F |
| But thou art all my art and dost advance | H |
| As high as learning my rude ignorance | I |
