If We Must Part Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCCA DEDEFFD| If we must part | A |
| Then let it be like this | B |
| Not heart on heart | A |
| Nor with the useless anguish of a kiss | B |
| But touch mine hand and say | C |
| Until to morrow or some other day | C |
| If we must part | A |
| - | |
| Words are so weak | D |
| When love hath been so strong | E |
| Let silence speak | D |
| Life is a little while and love is long | E |
| A time to sow and reap | F |
| And after harvest a long time to sleep | F |
| But words are weak | D |
