Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDEEFFGGHHIIJJ K| The embowering rose the acacia and the pine | A |
| Will not unwillingly their place resign | A |
| If but the Cedar thrive that near them stands | B |
| Planted by Beaumont's and by 's hands | B |
| One wooed the silent Art with studious pains | C |
| These groves have heard the Other's pensive strains | C |
| Devoted thus their spirits did unite | D |
| By interchange of knowledge and delight | D |
| May Nature's kindliest powers sustain the Tree | E |
| And Love protect it from all injury | E |
| And when its potent branches wide out thrown | F |
| Darken the brow of this memorial Stone | F |
| Here may some Painter sit in future days | G |
| Some future Poet meditate his lays | G |
| Not mindless of that distant age renowned | H |
| When Inspiration hovered o'er this ground | H |
| The haunt of him who sang how spear and shield | I |
| In civil conflict met on Bosworth field | I |
| And of that famous Youth full soon removed | J |
| From earth perhaps by Shakspeare's self approved | J |
| Fletcher's Associate Jonson's Friend beloved | K |
