Sensory imagery is a technique where writer's use words to connect to a reader's sense of touch, smell, taste, sight or hearing in order to develop a theme, idea, mood or character. In some cases, it connects the sense of movement and the perception of the temperature. With this idea in mind, the first line "Drink to me only with thine eyes " is a very good example or sensory image as the verb "Drink" act here as a vehicle to the sense of taste. The same applies to the four line "doth asks a drink divine but might I of joves nectar sup"  here in this sentence we have to elements of a sensory image, the verb drink and also the nectar that makes us think about a sweet drink and that involves gustatory imagery. The third line that uses a sensory image is "or leave a kiss but in the cup" because "a cup" represents the object where we can drink, this represents how we use an object to recreate the action of drink, so the reader creates the image related to the gustatory imagery as well. And the final line to complete all the examples is "since when it grows and smells I swear" because it involves the sense of smell or olfactory imagery with the verb "smell".
