To His Sleeping Mistress Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDEEFDOh fair sweet face oh eyes celestial bright | A |
Twin stars in heaven that now adorn the night | A |
Oh fruitful lips where cherries ever grow | B |
And damask cheeks where all sweet beauties blow | B |
Oh thou from head to foot divinely fair | C |
Cupid's most cunning net's made of that hair | C |
And as he weaves himself for curious eyes | D |
'Oh me oh me I'm caught myself ' he cries | D |
Sweet rest about thee sweet and golden sleep | E |
Soft peaceful thoughts your hourly watches keep | E |
Whilst I in wonder sing this sacrifice | F |
To beauty sacred and those angel eyes | D |
