A Fragment Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHDGIJDKLMNAGO| Nay deem me not insensible Cesario | A |
| To female charms nor think this heart of mine | B |
| Is cas'd in adamant because forsooth | C |
| I cannot ogle and hyperbolize | D |
| And whisper tender nothings in the ear | E |
| Of ev'ry would be beauty holding out | F |
| The bright but treacherous flame of flattery | G |
| To watch the she moths of a drawing room | H |
| Sport round the beam and burn their pretty wings | D |
| Ere conscious of their danger yet believe me | G |
| I love a maid whose untranscended form | I |
| Is yet less lovely than her spotless mind | J |
| With modest frankness unaffected genius | D |
| Unchang'd good humour beauty void of art | K |
| And polish'd wit that seeks not to offend | L |
| And winning smiles that seek not to betray | M |
| She charms the sight and fascinates the soul | N |
| Where dwells this matchless nymph alas Cesario | A |
| 'Tis but a sickly creature of my fancy | G |
| Unparallel'd in nature | O |
