Tell Me No More How Fair She Is Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEE FGHGII JHJHKL

TELL me no more how fair she isA
I have no minde to hearB
The story of that distant blissC
I never shall come nearD
By sad experience I have foundE
That her perfection is my woundE
-
And tell me not how fond I amF
To tempt a daring FateG
From whence no triumph ever cameH
But to repent too lateG
There is some hope ere long I mayI
In silence dote my self awayI
-
I ask no pity Love from theeJ
Nor will thy justice blameH
So that thou wilt not envy meJ
The glory of my flameH
Which crowns my heart when ere it dyesK
In that it falls her sacrificeL
