To A Young Beauty Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AABCCB DEFGGC HHICCJ

Dear fellow artist why so freeA
With every sort of companyA
With every Jack and JillB
Choose your companions from the bestC
Who draws a bucket with the restC
Soon topples down the hillB
-
You may that mirror for a schoolD
Be passionate not bountifulE
As common beauties mayF
Who were not born to keep in trimG
With old Ezekiel's cherubimG
But those of BeauvarletC
-
I know what wages beauty givesH
How hard a life her setvant livesH
Yet praise the winters goneI
There is not a fool can call me friendC
And I may dine at journey's endC
With Landor and with DonneJ
