A Man's Last Love Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDEEE FEFEEE| Like the tenth wave that offers to the shore | A |
| Accumulated opulence and force | B |
| So does my heart which thought it loved of yore | A |
| Carry increasing passion down the course | B |
| Of time to proffer thee | C |
| Oh not the faint | D |
| First ripple of the sea should be its pride | E |
| But the great climax of its unrestraint | E |
| Which culminates in one commanding tide | E |
| - | |
| The lesser billows of each crude emotion | F |
| Break on life's strand recede and then unite | E |
| With love's large sea and to some late devotion | F |
| Unrecognised they bring their lost delight | E |
| So all the vanished fancies of my past | E |
| Live yet in this one passion grand and vast | E |
