Rhyme Scheme: AABBAA CCAADDMy sweetheart's dainty lips are red | A |
With ruby's crimson overspread | A |
Her teeth are like a string of pearls | B |
Down her neck her clustering curls | B |
In ebony hue vie with the night | A |
And over her features dances light | A |
- | |
The twinkling stars enthroned above | C |
Are sisters to my dearest love | C |
We men should count it joy complete | A |
To lay our service at her feet | A |
But oh what rapture is her kiss | D |
A forecast 'tis of heavenly bliss | D |
