Tis Late And Cold Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDEEFGAAHHII| 'Tis late and cold stir up the fire | A |
| Sit close and draw the table nigher | A |
| Be merry and drink wine that's old | B |
| A hearty medecine 'gainst a cold | B |
| Your beds of wanton down the best | C |
| Where you shall tumble to your rest | C |
| I could wish you wenches too | D |
| But I am dead and cannot do | D |
| Call for the best the house may ring | E |
| Sack white and claret let them bring | E |
| And drink apace while breath you have | F |
| You'll find but cold drink in the grave | G |
| Plover partridge for you dinner | A |
| And a capon for the sinner | A |
| You shall find ready when you're up | H |
| And your horse shall have his sup | H |
| Welcome welcome shall fly round | I |
| And I shall smile though under ground | I |
