Thou Also Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACCDEDE| Cry out upon the crime and then let slip | A |
| The dogs of hate whose hanging muzzles track | B |
| The bloody secret let the welkin crack | B |
| Reverberating while ye dance and skip | A |
| About the horrid blaze or else ye strip | A |
| More secretly for the avenging rack | B |
| Him who hath done the deed till oozing black | B |
| Ye watch the anguish from his nostrils drip | A |
| And all the knotted limbs lie quivering | C |
| Or if your hearts disdain such banqueting | C |
| With wide and tearless eyes go staring through | D |
| The murder cells but think that if your knees | E |
| Bow not to holiness then even in you | D |
| Lie deeper gulfs and blacker crimes than these | E |
