The Long-nosed Fair Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDD

Once on a time I fair Dorinda kiss'dA
Whose nose was too distinguish'd to be miss'dA
My dear says I I fain would kiss you closerB
But tho' your lips say aye your nose says no SirB
The maid was equally to fun inclin'dC
And plac'd her lovely lily hand behindC
Here swain she cry'd may'st thou securely kissD
Where there's no nose to interrupt thy blissD
