The Young Usurper Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDDDEDEDCFGF| On my darling's bosom | A |
| Has dropped a living rosy bud | B |
| Fair as brilliant Hesper | C |
| Against the brimming flood | B |
| She handles him | D |
| She dandles him | D |
| She fondles him and eyes him | D |
| And if upon a tear he wakes | E |
| With many a kiss she dries him | D |
| She covets every move he makes | E |
| And never enough can prize him | D |
| Ah the young Usurper | C |
| I yield my golden throne | F |
| Such angel bands attend his hands | G |
| To claim it for his own | F |
