Song Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCCDD EEFFGG| Ladies though to your conquering eyes | A |
| Love owes his chiefest victories | B |
| And borrows those bright arms from you | C |
| With which he does the world subdue | C |
| Yet you yourselves are not above | D |
| The empire nor the griefs of love | D |
| - | |
| Then rack not lovers with disdain | E |
| Lest Love on you revenge their pain | E |
| You are not free because you're fair | F |
| The Boy did not his Mother spare | F |
| Beauty 's but an offensive dart | G |
| It is no armour for the heart | G |
