Andromeda Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CDCDCD| Now Time's Andromeda on this rock rude | A |
| With not her either beauty's equal or | B |
| Her injury's looks off by both horns of shore | B |
| Her flower her piece of being doomed dragon's food | A |
| Time past she has been attempted and pursued | A |
| By many blows and banes but now hears roar | B |
| A wilder beast from West than all were more | B |
| Rife in her wrongs more lawless and more lewd | A |
| - | |
| Her Perseus linger and leave her t oacute her extremes | C |
| Pillowy air he treads a time and hangs | D |
| His thoughts on her forsaken that she seems | C |
| All while her patience morselled into pangs | D |
| Mounts then to alight disarming no one dreams | C |
| With Gorgon's gear and barebill thongs and fangs | D |
