A Lover's Anger Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABCDDEEFGHHIIIJ| As Cloe came into the Room t'other Day | A |
| I peevish began Where so long cou'd You stay | A |
| In your Life time You never regarded your Hour | B |
| You promis'd at Two and pray look Child 'tis Four | C |
| A Lady's Watch needs neither Figures nor Wheels | D |
| 'Tis enough that 'tis loaded with Baubles and Seals | D |
| A Temper so heedless no Mortal can bear | E |
| Thus far I went on with a resolute Air | E |
| Lord bless Me said She let a Body but speak | F |
| Here's an ugly hard Rose Bud fall'n into my Neck | G |
| It has hurt Me and vext Me to such a Degree | H |
| See here for You never believe Me pray see | H |
| On the left Side my Breast what a Mark it has made | I |
| So saying her Bosom She careless display'd | I |
| That Seat of Delight I with Wonder survey'd | I |
| And forgot ev'ry Word I design'd to have said | J |
