Song To Celia'ii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBABCB DEFEGEFEDrink to me only with thine eyes | A |
And I will pledge with mine | B |
Or leave a kiss but in the cup | C |
And I'll not look for wine | B |
The thirst that from the soul doth rise | A |
Doth ask a drink divine | B |
But might I of Jove's nectar sup | C |
I would not change for thine | B |
- | |
I sent thee late a rosy wreath | D |
Not so much honouring thee | E |
As giving it a hope that there | F |
It could not withered be | E |
But thou thereon didst only breathe | G |
And sent'st it back to me | E |
Since when it grows and smells I swear | F |
Not of itself but thee | E |
Ben Jonson
