My Dear Mistress Has A Heart Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDED FGHGGDED| My dear mistress has a heart | A |
| Soft as those kind looks she gave me | B |
| When with love's resistless art | A |
| And her eyes she did enslave me | B |
| But her constancy's so weak | C |
| She's so wild and apt to wander | D |
| That my jealous heart would break | E |
| Should we live one day asunder | D |
| - | |
| Melting joys about her move | F |
| Killing pleasures wounding blisses | G |
| She can dress her eyes in love | H |
| And her lips can arm with kisses | G |
| Angels listen when she speaks | G |
| She's my delight all mankind's wonder | D |
| But my jealous heart would break | E |
| Should we live one day asunder | D |
