On A Gentlewoman That Sung And Play'd Upon A Lute Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AAAABBCCAADDBe silent you still musique of the Sphears | A |
And every sense make haste to be all ears | A |
And give devout attention to her aires | A |
To which the Gods doe listen as to prayers | A |
Of pious votaries the which to heare | B |
Tumult would be attentive and would swear | B |
To keep lesse noise at Nile if there she sing | C |
Or with a happy touch grace but the string | C |
Among so many auditors such throngs | A |
Of Gods and men that presse to hear her songs | A |
O let me have an unespied room | D |
And die with such an anthem ore my tomb | D |
