La Derniere Robe De Soi Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AAAA BBCC DDEE FFFF GHAA

Oh silken gown all pink and prettyA
Bought quite a bargain in the CityA
Your ill trained soul full false has played meA
No Paris gown would have betrayed meA
-
You knew my pretty silken treasureB
I must not wed for love or pleasureB
But for a settlement and titleC
Yet you encouraged his recitalC
-
He said oh faithless gown you listenedD
While on your sheen two tear drops glistenedD
He said let love to music set itE
I'll never speak it nor forget itE
-
No no I cried I tried to save youF
False gown you showed the tears I gave youF
You looked discreet when first I found youF
How could you let his arm go round youF
-
You darling dress I'll smooth your creasesG
I'll wear you till you drop to piecesH
But poor men's wives wear cotton onlyA
Dear gown I hope you won't feel lonelyA
