Apelles' Song Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBBBCCDDEE FFCupid and my Campaspe played | A |
At cards for kisses Cupid paid | A |
He stakes his quiver bow and arrows | B |
His mother's doves and team of sparrows | B |
Loses them too then down he throws | B |
The coral of his lip the rose | B |
Growing on's cheek but none knows how | C |
With these the crystal of his brow | C |
And then the dimple on his chin | D |
All these did my Campaspe win | D |
And last he set her both his eyes | E |
She won and Cupid blind did rise | E |
- | |
O Love has she done this to thee | F |
What shall alas become of me | F |
