Woman Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDED FGFG HIHIAway away you're all the same | A |
A smiling fluttering jilting throng | B |
And wise too late I burn with shame | A |
To think I've been your slave so long | B |
- | |
Slow to be won and quick to rove | C |
From folly kind from cunning loath | D |
Too cold for bliss too weak for love | E |
Yet feigning all that's best in both | D |
- | |
Still panting o'er a crowd to reign | F |
More joy it gives to woman's breast | G |
To make ten frigid coxcombs vain | F |
Than one true manly lover blest | G |
- | |
Away away your smile's a curse | H |
Oh blot me from the race of men | I |
Kind pitying Heaven by death or worse | H |
If e'er I love such things again | I |
