A Lover's Vows Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABCCDBAAAB BBBBEEEBAAAB

Scenes of love and days of pleasureA
I must leave them all lassieB
Scenes of love and hours of leisureA
All are gone for aye lassieB
No more thy velvet bordered dressC
My fond and longing een shall blessC
Thou lily in the wildernessD
And who shall love thee then lassieB
Long I've watched thy look so tenderA
Often clasped thy waist so slenderA
Heaven in thine own love defend herA
God protect my own lassieB
-
By all the faith I've shown afore theeB
I'll swear by more than that lassieB
By heaven and earth I'll still adore theeB
Though we should part for aye lassieB
By thy infant years so lovingE
By thy woman's love so movingE
That white breast thy goodness provingE
I'm thine for aye through all lassieB
By the sun that shines for everA
By love's light and its own GiverA
Who loveth truth and leaveth neverA
I'm thine for aye through all lassieB

John Clare
