Content, Not Cates Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AAAAAABB

'Tis not the food but the contentA
That makes the table's merrimentA
Where trouble serves the board we eatA
The platters there as soon as meatA
A little pipkin with a bitA
Of mutton or of veal in itA
Set on my table trouble freeB
More than a feast contenteth meB

Robert Herrick
