Bluebeard Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDEDFGFGDD| This door you might not open and you did | A |
| So enter now and see for what slight thing | B |
| You are betrayed Here is no treasure hid | A |
| No cauldron no clear crystal mirroring | B |
| The sought for truth no heads of women slain | C |
| For greed like yours no writhings of distress | D |
| But only what you see Look yet again | E |
| An empty room cobwebbed and comfortless | D |
| Yet this alone out of my life I kept | F |
| Unto myself lest any know me quite | G |
| And you did so profane me when you crept | F |
| Unto the threshold of this room to night | G |
| That I must never more behold your face | D |
| This now is yours I seek another place | D |
