Anonymous Plays: Xviii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBACDBAEEFGFG| MORE yet and more and yet we mark not all | A |
| The Warning fain to bid fair women heed | B |
| Its hard brief note of deadly doom and deed | B |
| The verse that strewed too thick with flowers the hall | A |
| Whence Nero watched his fiery festival | C |
| That iron page wherein men s eyes who read | D |
| See bruised and marred between two babes that bleed | B |
| A mad red handed husband s martyr fall | A |
| The scene which crossed and streaked with mirth the strife | E |
| Of Henry with his sons and witchlike wife | E |
| And that sweet pageant of the kindly fiend | F |
| Who seeing three friends in spirit and heart made one | G |
| Crowned with good hap the true love wiles he screened | F |
| In the pleached lanes of pleasant Edmonton | G |
