Regrets Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAC DEDE FGFG AHAH HIHJ FKKK| As when the seaward ebbing tide doth pour | A |
| Out by the low sand spaces | B |
| The parting waves slip back to clasp the shore | A |
| With lingering embraces | C |
| - | |
| So in the tide of life that carries me | D |
| From where thy true heart dwells | E |
| Waves of my thoughts and memories turn to thee | D |
| With lessening farewells | E |
| - | |
| Waving of hands dreams when the day forgets | F |
| A care half lost in cares | G |
| The saddest of my verses dim regrets | F |
| Thy name among my prayers | G |
| - | |
| I would the day might come so waited for | A |
| So patiently besought | H |
| When I returning should fill up once more | A |
| Thy desolated thought | H |
| - | |
| And fill thy loneliness that lies apart | H |
| In still persistent pain | I |
| Shall I content thee O thou broken heart | H |
| As the tide comes again | J |
| - | |
| And brims the little sea shore lakes and sets | F |
| Seaweeds afloat and fills | K |
| The silent pools rivers and rivulets | K |
| Among the inland hills | K |
