To One Across The Way Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCAACCADEFDEFWhen at your window radiant you've stood | A |
I've sometimes thought forgive me if I've erred | B |
That some slight thought of me perhaps has stirred | C |
Your heart to beat less gently than it should | A |
I know you beautiful that you are good | A |
I hope or fear I cannot choose the word | C |
Nor rightly suit it to the thought I've heard | C |
Reason at love's dictation never could | A |
Blindly to this dilemma so I grope | D |
As one whose every pathway has a snare | E |
If you are minded in the saintly fashion | F |
Of your pure face my passion's without hope | D |
If not alas I equally despair | E |
For what to me were hope without the passion | F |
