Words On The Window-pane Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACCADEFDEF| DID she in summer write it or in spring | A |
| Or with this wail of autumn at her ears | B |
| Or in some winter left among old years | B |
| Scratched it through tettered cark A certain thing | A |
| That round her heart the frost was hardening | A |
| Not to be thawed of tears which on this pane | C |
| Channelled the rime perchance in fevered rain | C |
| For false man's sake and love's most bitter sting | A |
| Howbeit between this last word and the next | D |
| Unwritten subtly seasoned was the smart | E |
| And here at least the grace to weep if she | F |
| Rather midway in her disconsolate text | D |
| Rebelled not loathing from the trodden heart | E |
| That thing which she had found man's love to be | F |
