Rhyme Scheme: ABAB BCBC DBDB DBDB EOh Anne your offences to me have been grievous | A |
I thought from my wrath no atonement could save you | B |
But woman is made to command and deceive us | A |
I look 'd in your face and I almost forgave you | B |
- | |
I vow'd I could ne'er for a moment respect you | B |
Yet thought that a day's separation was long | C |
When we met I determined again to suspect you | B |
Your smile soon convinced me suspicion was wrong | C |
- | |
I swore in a transport of young indignation | D |
With fervent contempt evermore to disdain you | B |
I saw you my anger became admiration | D |
And now all my wish all my hope's to regain you | B |
- | |
With beauty like yours oh how vain the contention | D |
Thus lowly I sue for forgiveness before you | B |
At once to conclude such a fruitless dissension | D |
Be false my sweet Anne when I cease to adore you | B |
