Love And Hymen Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEDE FGHG IBIB| Love had a fever ne'er could close | A |
| His little eyes till day was breaking | B |
| And wild and strange enough Heaven knows | C |
| The things he raved about while waking | B |
| - | |
| To let him pine so were a sin | D |
| One to whom all the world's a debtor | E |
| So Doctor Hymen was called in | D |
| And Love that night slept rather better | E |
| - | |
| Next day the case gave further hope yet | F |
| Tho' still some ugly fever latent | G |
| Dose as before a gentle opiate | H |
| For which old Hymen has a patent | G |
| - | |
| After a month of daily call | I |
| So fast the dose went on restoring | B |
| That Love who first ne'er slept at all | I |
| Now took the rogue to downright snoring | B |
