To Helen In A Huff Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDE FGFHGFGFE

Nay lady one frown is enoughA
In a life as soon over as thisB
And though minutes seem long in a huffA
They're minutes 'tis pity to missB
The smiles you imprison so lightlyC
Are reckon'd like days in eclipseD
And though you may smile again brightlyC
You've lost so much light from your lipsD
Pray lady smileE
-
The cup that is longest untastedF
May be with our bliss running o'erG
And love when we will we have wastedF
An age in not loving beforeH
Perchance Cupid's forging a fetterG
To tie us together some dayF
And just for the chance we had betterG
Be laying up love I should sayF
Nay lady smileE
