An Exception Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDED FGFGIn all romances old and new | A |
And in all lover's rhymes | B |
I find one rule that has held true | A |
Since prehistoric times | B |
- | |
The lover must if he indeed | C |
Be hit by Cupid's dart | D |
Grow pale sigh much neglect his food | E |
And wholly lose his heart | D |
- | |
Now fain would I abide this rule | F |
But I forsooth grow red | G |
And hot and stammer like a fool | F |
And only lose my head | G |
