The Kiss Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFFEGHGHII| Grow to my lip thou sacred kiss | A |
| On which my soul's beloved swore | B |
| That there should come a time of bliss | A |
| When she would mock my hopes no more | B |
| And fancy shall thy glow renew | C |
| In sighs at morn and dreams at night | D |
| And none shall steal thy holy dew | C |
| Till thou'rt absolved by rapture's rite | D |
| Sweet hours that are to make me blest | E |
| Fly swift as breezes to the goal | F |
| And let my love my more than soul | F |
| Come blushing to this ardent breast | E |
| Then while in every glance I drink | G |
| The rich overflowing of her mind | H |
| Oh let her all enamored sink | G |
| In sweet abandonment resigned | H |
| Blushing for all our struggles past | I |
| And murmuring I am thine at last | I |
