Heine's "widow Or Daughter?" Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CACA DADAShall 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 |
