To Others Than You Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDBEEFGHIJKLKMC NOPQ| Friend by enemy I call you out | A |
| You with a bad coin in your socket | B |
| You my friend there with a winning air | C |
| Who palmed the lie on me when you looked | D |
| Brassily at my shyest secret | B |
| Enticed with twinkling bits of the eye | E |
| Till the sweet tooth of my love bit dry | E |
| Rasped at last and I stumbled and sucked | F |
| Whom now I conjure to stand as thief | G |
| In the memory worked by mirrors | H |
| With unforgettably smiling act | I |
| Quickness of hand in the velvet glove | J |
| And my whole heart under your hammer | K |
| Were once such a creature so gay and frank | L |
| A desireless familiar | K |
| I never thought to utter or think | M |
| While you displaced a truth in the air | C |
| - | |
| That though I loved them for their faults | N |
| As much as for their good | O |
| My friends were enemies on stilts | P |
| With their heads in a cunning cloud | Q |
