To One I Love Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCABADEDEDE| Oh let me plead with thee to have a nook | A |
| A garden nook not far from thy domain | B |
| That there with harp and voice and poet book | A |
| I may be true to thee and passion fain | B |
| Rehearse the songs of nature once again | C |
| The songs of Cynthia wandering by the brook | A |
| To soothe the raptures of a lover's pain | B |
| And those of Phyllis with her shepherd's crook | A |
| I die to serve thee and for this alone | D |
| To be thy bard elect from day to day | E |
| I would forego the right to fill a throne | D |
| I would consent to be the famine prey | E |
| Of some fierce pard if ere the night were flown | D |
| I could subdue thy spirit to my sway | E |
