Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDCEFFCharles and I say it wond'ring thou must know | A |
That I who once assum'd a scornful air | B |
And scoff'd at love am fallen in his snare | B |
Full many an upright man has fallen so | A |
Yet think me not thus dazzled by the flow | A |
Of golden locks or damask cheek more rare | B |
The heart felt beauties of my foreign fair | B |
A mien majestic with dark brows that show | A |
The tranquil lustre of a lofty mind | C |
Words exquisite of idioms more than one | D |
And song whose fascinating pow'r might bind | C |
And from her sphere draw down the lab'ring Moon | E |
With such fire darting eyes that should I fill | F |
My ears with wax she would enchant me still | F |
John Milton
