Good Morrow VIC H

 This poem is written from the perspective of a man who is in love. 
 The poem has three stanzas each that have seven lines.  
Included in the poem are a quatrain and a Triplett per stanza.  
It rhymed not in a consistent pattern but enough to flow smoothly.  
When Donne talks about being weaned and then continuing to say, sucked and childishly, his words and descriptions paint an implied image making your mind think of something that is not said. 
 You think of breast feeding but knowing the kind of poet he is and understanding this is an intimate poem then focusing on words like pleasure I get that it has a perverted meaning somehow.   
  And true plain hearts do in the faces rest” In the second line of the third stanza there is figurative language used to explain the hearts action of resting.  
It stands out when read and leads you to envision the heart resting in a face.  
Also the author says “My face in thine eye and thine in mine appears. 
 It is hard to believe the poet is literally talking about a face being in an eye so you know that it is Metonymy.
