Sonnet Xci: Lost On Both Sides Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDEFGHAs when two men have loved a woman well | A |
Each hating each through Love's and Death's deceit | B |
Since not for either this stark marriage sheet | B |
And the long pauses of this wedding bell | A |
Yet o'er her grave the night and day dispel | A |
At last their feud forlorn with cold and heat | B |
Nor other than dear friends to death may fleet | B |
The two lives left that most of her can tell | A |
So separate hopes which in a soul had wooed | C |
The one same Peace strove with each other long | D |
And Peace before their faces perished since | E |
So through that soul in restless brotherhood | F |
They roam together now and wind among | G |
Its bye streets knocking at the dusty inns | H |
