Sed Non Satiata Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBA CDDC EFE FGD

Singular goddess brown as night and wildA
Perfumed of fine tobacco smoke and muskB
Work of some Faust some wizard of the duskB
Ebony sorceress black midnight's childA
-
Rare wines or opium are less a prizeC
Than your moist lips where love struts its pavaneD
When my lusts move towards you in caravanD
My ennuis drink from cisterns of your eyesC
-
From these black orbits where the soul breathes throughE
O heartless demon pour a drink less hotF
I'm not the Styx nine times embracing youE
-
Alas and my Megaera I can notF
To break your nerve and bring you to your kneesG
In your bed's hell become PersephoneD
