Rhyme Scheme: AABBAACCDDDDEEFGHHII JBWoman experience might have told me | A |
That all must love thee who behold thee | A |
Surely experience might have taught | B |
Thy firmest promises are nought | B |
But plac'd in all thy charms before me | A |
All I forget but to adore thee | A |
Oh memory thou choicest blessing | C |
When join'd with hope when still possessing | C |
But how much curst by every lover | D |
When hope is fled and passion's over | D |
Woman that fair and fond deceiver | D |
How prompt are striplings to believe her | D |
How throbs the pulse when first we view | E |
The eye that rolls in glossy blue | E |
Or sparkles black or mildly throws | F |
A beam from under hazel brows | G |
How quick we credit every oath | H |
And hear her plight the willing troth | H |
Fondly we hope 'twill last for ay | I |
When lo she changes in a day | I |
This record will for ever stand ' | J |
Woman thy vows are trac'd in sand | B |
George Gordon Lord Byron
