On Tea Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDEEVenus her myrtle Phoebus has her bays | A |
Tea both excels which she vouchsafes to praise | A |
The best of Queens and best of herbs we owe | B |
To that bold nation which the way did show | B |
To the fair region where the sun doth rise | C |
Whose rich productions we so justly prize | C |
The Muse's friend tea does our fancy aid | D |
Repress those vapors which the head invade | D |
And keep the palace of the soul serene | E |
Fit on her birthday to salute the Queen | E |
