A Lover To His Mistress Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AAAABBCD

Ile tell you how the Rose did first grow reddeA
And whence the Lilly whitenesse borrowedA
You blusht and then the Rose with redde was dightA
The Lillies kissde your hands and so came whiteA
Before that time each Rose had but a stayneB
The Lilly nought but palenesse did containeB
You have the native colour these the dyeC
They flourish only in your liveryD
