The Long-nosed Fair Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDD| Once on a time I fair Dorinda kiss'd | A |
| Whose nose was too distinguish'd to be miss'd | A |
| My dear says I I fain would kiss you closer | B |
| But tho' your lips say aye your nose says no Sir | B |
| The maid was equally to fun inclin'd | C |
| And plac'd her lovely lily hand behind | C |
| Here swain she cry'd may'st thou securely kiss | D |
| Where there's no nose to interrupt thy bliss | D |
