On The Threshold Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBBCCDDCEF| O God my dream I dreamed that you were dead | A |
| Your mother hung above the couch and wept | B |
| Whereon you lay all white and garlanded | B |
| With blooms of waxen whiteness I had crept | B |
| Up to your chamber door which stood ajar | C |
| And in the doorway watched you from afar | C |
| Nor dared advance to kiss your lips and brow | D |
| I had no part nor lot in you as now | D |
| Death had not broken between us the old bar | C |
| Nor torn from out my heart the old cold sense | E |
| Of your misprision and my impotence | F |
