Lady Hertford To Lord William Hamilton Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEDEFGFGHIHI| Dear Colin prevent my warm blushes | A |
| Since how can I speak without pain | B |
| My eyes oft have told you my wishes | C |
| Why don't you their meaning explain | B |
| My passion will lose by expression | D |
| And you may too cruelly blame | E |
| Then do not expect a confession | D |
| Of what is too tender to name | E |
| Since yours is the province of speaking | F |
| How can you then hope it from me | G |
| Our wishes should be in our keeping | F |
| 'Till yours tell us what they should be | G |
| Alas then why don't you discover | H |
| DId your heart feel such torments as mine | I |
| Eyes need not tell over and over | H |
| What I in my breast would confine | I |
