Follow Your Saint Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABCDE FFGHIIFollow your saint follow with accents sweet | A |
Haste you sad notes fall at her flying feet | A |
There wrapp'd in cloud of sorrow pity move | B |
And tell the ravisher of my soul I perish for her love | C |
But if she scorns my never ceasing pain | D |
Then burst with sighing in her sight and ne'er return again | E |
- | |
All that I sung still to her praise did tend | F |
Still she was first still she my songs did end | F |
Yet she my love and music both doth fly | G |
The music that her echo is and beauty's sympathy | H |
Then let my notes pursue her scornful flight | I |
It shall suffice that they were breath'd and died for her delight | I |
