A Triad Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABBCBCBDEDED| Three sang of love together one with lips | A |
| Crimson with cheeks and bosom in a glow | B |
| Flushed to the yellow hair and finger tips | A |
| And one there sang who soft and smooth as snow | B |
| Bloomed like a tinted hyacinth at a show | B |
| And one was blue with famine after love | C |
| Who like a harpstring snapped rang harsh and low | B |
| The burden of what those were singing of | C |
| One shamed herself in love one temperately | B |
| Grew gross in soulless love a sluggish wife | D |
| One famished died for love Thus two of three | E |
| Took death for love and won him after strife | D |
| One droned in sweetness like a fattened bee | E |
| All on the threshold yet all short of life | D |
