Paul Mcneely Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSA| Dear Jane dear winsome Jane | A |
| How you stole in the room where I lay so ill | B |
| In your nurse's cap and linen cuffs | C |
| And took my hand and said with a smile | D |
| You are not so ill you'll soon be well | E |
| And how the liquid thought of your eyes | F |
| Sank in my eyes like dew that slips | G |
| Into the heart of a flower | H |
| Dear Jane the whole McNeely fortune | I |
| Could not have bought your care of me | J |
| By day and night and night and day | K |
| Nor paid for you smile nor the warmth of your soul | L |
| In your little hands laid on my brow | M |
| Jane till the flame of life went out | N |
| In the dark above the disk of night | O |
| I longed and hoped to be well again | P |
| To pillow my head on your little breasts | Q |
| And hold you fast in a clasp of love | R |
| Did my father provide for you when he died | S |
| Jane dear Jane | A |
