To Maude Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDECDE

Not as two errant spheres together grindA
With monstrous ruin in the vast of spaceB
Destruction born of that malign embraceB
Their hapless peoples all to death consignedA
Not so when our intangible worlds of mindA
Even mine and yours each with its spirit raceB
Of beings shadowy in form and faceB
Shall drift together on some blessed windA
No in that marriage of gloom and lightC
All miracles of beauty shall be wroughtD
Attesting a diviner faith than man'sE
For all my sad eyed daughters of the nightC
Shall smile on your sweet seraphim of thoughtD
Nor any jealous god forbid the bannsE

Ambrose Bierce
