Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEDEFGFGHH| I grant thou wert not married to my Muse | A |
| And therefore mayst without attaint o'erlook | B |
| The dedicated words which writers use | C |
| Of their fair subject blessing every book | B |
| Thou art as fair in knowledge as in hue | D |
| Finding thy worth a limit past my praise | E |
| And therefore art enforced to seek anew | D |
| Some fresher stamp of the time bettering days | E |
| And do so love yet when they have devised | F |
| What strain egrave d touches rhetoric can lend | G |
| Thou truly fair wert truly sympathized | F |
| In true plain words by thy true telling friend | G |
| And their gross painting might be better used | H |
| Where cheeks need blood in thee it is abused | H |
