Modern Love Xlvi: At Last We Parley Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBACDECFGGFFHHF| At last we parley we so strangely dumb | A |
| In such a close communion It befell | B |
| About the sounding of the Matin bell | B |
| And lo her place was vacant and the hum | A |
| Of loneliness was round me Then I rose | C |
| And my disordered brain did guide my foot | D |
| To that old wood where our first love salute | E |
| Was interchanged the source of many throes | C |
| There did I see her not alone I moved | F |
| Toward her and made proffer of my arm | G |
| She took it simply with no rude alarm | G |
| And that disturbing shadow passed reproved | F |
| I felt the pained speech coming and declared | F |
| My firm belief in her ere she could speak | H |
| A ghastly morning came into her cheek | H |
| While with a widening soul on me she stared | F |
