Celia Beeding, To The Surgeon Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCC DEDEFF GBGBHHFond man that canst believe her blood | A |
Will from those purple channels flow | B |
Or that the pure untainted flood | A |
Can any foul distemper know | B |
Or that thy weak steel can incise | C |
The crystal case wherein it lies | C |
- | |
Know her quick blood proud of his seat | D |
Runs dancing through her azure veins | E |
Whose harmony no cold nor heat | D |
Disturbs whose hue no tincture stains | E |
And the hard rock wherein it dwells | F |
The keenest darts of love repels | F |
- | |
But thou repli'st behold she bleeds | G |
Fool thou 'rt deceiv'd and dost not know | B |
The mystic knot whence this proceeds | G |
How lovers in each other grow | B |
Thou struck'st her arm but 'twas my heart | H |
Shed all the blood felt all the smart | H |
