Rhyme Scheme: A BABCBBBBDEFBBBHis Remedy for Love | A |
- | |
Since to obtain thee nothing will be stead | B |
I have a med'cine that shall cure my love | A |
The powder of her heart dried when she is dead | B |
That gold nor honor ne'er had power to move | C |
Mixt with her tears that ne'er her true love crost | B |
Nor at fifteen ne'er long'd to be a bride | B |
Boil'd with her sighs in giving up the ghost | B |
That for her late deceased husband died | B |
Into the same then let a woman breathe | D |
That being chid did never word reply | E |
With one thrice married's prayers that did bequeath | F |
A legacy to stale virginity | B |
If this receipt have not the power to win me | B |
Little I'll say but think the Devil's in me | B |
