The Convivial Book - Ye've Often, For Our Drunkenness, Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AB AB AB AB AC AB AB AB AB A

Blamed us in ev'ry wayA
And in abuse of drunkennessB
-
Enough can never sayA
Men overcome by drunkennessB
-
Are wont to lie till dayA
And yet I find my drunkennessB
-
All night time make me strayA
For oh 'tis Love's sweet drunkennessB
-
That maketh me its preyA
Which night and day and day and nightC
-
My heart must needs obeyA
A heart that in its drunkennessB
-
Pours forth full many a layA
So that no trifling drunkennessB
-
Can dare assert its swayA
Love song and wine's sweet drunkennessB
-
By night time and by dayA
How god like is the drunkennessB
-
That maketh me its preyA

Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe
