There were some soft rhymes with which I had some minor qualms.... "There" does not really rhyme well with "stomacher," unless I am mistaken, although I had never even heard the second word before. The diction was pretty sophisticated... more like stereotypical poetry-words than I feel like we've been hearing so far. "Kindles" and "wantonness".... Those are the types of words that Pamela Phillips Oland, author of The Art of Writing Great Lyrics, would call poetry words. If you wouldn't say them in regular conversation, then they're not song lyrics; they're poetry verses.
