The Choice: 01 Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABCA DEFFEG| Eat thou and drink to morrow thou shalt die | A |
| Surely the earth that s wise being very old | B |
| Needs not our help Then loose me love and hold | B |
| Thy sultry hair up from my face that I | A |
| May pour for thee this yellow wine brim high | A |
| Till round the glass thy fingers glow like gold | B |
| We'll drown all hours thy song while hours toil'd | C |
| Shall leap as fountains veil the changing sky | A |
| - | |
| Now kiss and think that there are really those | D |
| My own high bosomed beauty who increase | E |
| Vain gold vain lore and yet might choose our way | F |
| Through many days they toil then comes a day | F |
| They die not never having lived but cease | E |
| And round their narrow lips the mould falls close | G |
