To A Lady, Persuading Her To A Car Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDEFGGHIJJLove's fiery chariot Delia take | A |
Which Vulcan wrought for Venus' sake | A |
Wings shall not waft thee but a flame | B |
Hot as my heart as nobly tame | B |
Lit by a spark less bright more wise | C |
Than linked lightnings of thine eyes | C |
Seated and ready to be drawn | D |
Come not in muslins lace or lawn | D |
But for thy thrice imperial worth | E |
Take all the sables of the North | F |
With frozen diamonds belted on | G |
To face extreme Euroclydon | G |
Thus in our thund'ring toy we'll prove | H |
Which is more blind the Law or Love | I |
And may the jealous Gods prevent | J |
Our fierce and uncontrouled descent | J |
