Rhyme Scheme: AABB CCDE FFGGThrice toss those oaken ashes in the air | A |
Thrice sit thou mute in this enchanted chair | A |
Then thrice three times tie up this true love's knot | B |
And murmur soft She will or she will not | B |
- | |
Go burn those poisonous weeds in yon blue fire | C |
These screech owl's feathers and this prickling briar | C |
This cypress gathered at a dead man's grave | D |
That all thy fears and cares an end may have | E |
- | |
Then come you fairies dance with me a round | F |
Melt her hard heart with your melodious sound | F |
In vain are all the charms I can devise | G |
She hath an art to break them with her eyes | G |
