Edward Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABACDEDE FGFHIEIE JBJBKEKE| HEAVY is my trembling heart mine own love my dearest | A |
| Heavy as the hearts whose love is poured in vain | B |
| All the bright day I watch till thou appearest | A |
| All the long night I dream of thee again | C |
| When the whisp'ring summer breeze is waving o'er me lightly | D |
| When the moaning winter winds their wail of sadness make | E |
| Then dearest then thine image riseth brightly | D |
| I am weary of my life for Edward's sake | E |
| - | |
| When in the halls of light all bright and happy faces | F |
| Smiling turn to greet a friend and wander on | G |
| Far through the distant crowd my heart thy proud form traces | F |
| My eye is sadly fixed on thee alone | H |
| When that dear familiar voice some careless word hath spoken | I |
| When thy brow a moment bends a cold farewell to take | E |
| Then dearest then my heart is well nigh broken | I |
| I am weary of my life for Edward's sake | E |
| - | |
| Oh Edward dark my doom this heart will love for ever | J |
| Though thou wilt never share its joy or pain | B |
| Thine eye will turn to mine and meet its glance but never | J |
| Beam fondly back on hers who loves in vain | B |
| But when weary life is o'er and in the grave I'm lying | K |
| Silently a woman's heart should hide its love and break | E |
| Then dearest then some voice shall tell thee sighing | K |
| How weary was my life to me for Edward's sake | E |
