Ii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACACACA| But only three in all God's universe | A |
| Have heard this word thou hast said Himself beside | B |
| Thee speaking and me listening and replied | B |
| One of us that was God and laid the curse | A |
| So darkly on my eyelids as to amerce | A |
| My sight from seeing thee that if I had died | B |
| The deathweights placed there would have signified | B |
| Less absolute exclusion 'Nay' is worse | A |
| From God than from all others O my friend | C |
| Men could not part us with their worldly jars | A |
| Nor the seas change us nor the tempests bend | C |
| Our hands would touch for all the mountain bars | A |
| And heaven being rolled between us at the end | C |
| We should but vow the faster for the stars | A |
