Modern Love Xxxvi: My Lady Unto Madam Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBACDDCEFGEHIJH| My Lady unto Madam makes her bow | A |
| The charm of women is that even while | B |
| You're probed by them for tears you yet may smile | B |
| Nay laugh outright as I have done just now | A |
| The interview was gracious they anoint | C |
| To me aside each other with fine praise | D |
| Discriminating compliments they raise | D |
| That hit with wondrous aim on the weak point | C |
| My Lady's nose of Nature might complain | E |
| It is not fashioned aptly to express | F |
| Her character of large browed steadfastness | G |
| But Madam says Thereof she may be vain | E |
| Now Madam's faulty feature is a glazed | H |
| And inaccessible eye that has soft fires | I |
| Wide gates at love time only This admires | J |
| My Lady At the two I stand amazed | H |
