Modern Love Xlix: He Found Her Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBACDDCEFFGHIIH| He found her by the ocean's moaning verge | A |
| Nor any wicked change in her discerned | B |
| And she believed his old love had returned | B |
| Which was her exultation and her scourge | A |
| She took his hand and walked with him and seemed | C |
| The wife he sought though shadow like and dry | D |
| She had one terror lest her heart should sigh | D |
| And tell her loudly she no longer dreamed | C |
| She dared not say 'This is my breast look in ' | E |
| But there's a strength to help the desperate weak | F |
| That night he learned how silence best can speak | F |
| The awful things when Pity pleads for Sin | G |
| About the middle of the night her call | H |
| Was heard and he came wondering to the bed | I |
| 'Now kiss me dear it may be now ' she said | I |
| Lethe had passed those lips and he knew all | H |
