Love And Hymen Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEDE FGHG IBIB

Love had a fever ne'er could closeA
His little eyes till day was breakingB
And wild and strange enough Heaven knowsC
The things he raved about while wakingB
-
To let him pine so were a sinD
One to whom all the world's a debtorE
So Doctor Hymen was called inD
And Love that night slept rather betterE
-
Next day the case gave further hope yetF
Tho' still some ugly fever latentG
Dose as before a gentle opiateH
For which old Hymen has a patentG
-
After a month of daily callI
So fast the dose went on restoringB
That Love who first ne'er slept at allI
Now took the rogue to downright snoringB
