Heine's "widow Or Daughter?" Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CACA DADA| Shall I woo the one or other | A |
| Both attract me more's the pity | B |
| Pretty is the widowed mother | A |
| And the daughter too is pretty | B |
| - | |
| When I see that maiden shrinking | C |
| By the gods I swear I'll get 'er | A |
| But anon I fall to thinking | C |
| That the mother 'll suit me better | A |
| - | |
| So like any idiot ass | D |
| Hungry for the fragrant fodder | A |
| Placed between two bales of grass | D |
| Lo I doubt delay and dodder | A |
