Rhyme Scheme: ABCCDDEEFFGHIII could wish you all who love | A |
That ye could your thoughts remove | B |
From your mistresses and be | C |
Wisely wanton like to me | C |
I could wish you dispossessed | D |
Of that fiend that mars your rest | D |
And with tapers comes to fright | E |
Your weak senses in the night | E |
I could wish ye all who fry | F |
Cold as ice or cool as I | F |
But if flames best like ye then | G |
Much good do 't ye gentlemen | H |
I a merry heart will keep | I |
While you wring your hands and weep | I |
