Outcast Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CCCCCCPerchance for dear Life's sake and life is sweet | A |
When work had failed and roads were deep in snow | B |
And this meant food and fire she fell so low | B |
That painted creature of the midnight street | A |
Perchance that other with the shoeless feet | A |
Was Nature's victim too untaught to know | B |
That all live buds are not allowed to blow | B |
Too starved and passion blind to be discreet | A |
- | |
And their accuser She within the fold | C |
That walks in light bejewelled and belaced | C |
Who in cold blood and not for love or need | C |
Sold the white flower of womanhood for gold | C |
The wedded harlot rich and undisgraced | C |
The viler prostitute in mind and deed | C |
