Stillborn Love Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CCDEEThe hour which might have been yet might not be | A |
Which man's and woman's heart conceived and bore | B |
Yet whereof life was barren on what shore | B |
Bides it the breaking of Time's weary sea | A |
Bondchild of all consummate joys set free | A |
It somewhere sighs and serves and mute before | B |
The house of Love hears through the echoing door | B |
His hours elect in choral consonancy | A |
- | |
But lo what wedded souls now hand in hand | C |
Together tread at last the immortal strand | C |
With eyes where burning memory lights love home | D |
Lo how the little outcast hour has turned | E |
And leaped to them and in their faces yearned | E |
'I am your child O parents ye have come ' | - |
