Song (untitled #12) Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABB ACACC ADADD AEAEE| Should thy love die | A |
| O bury it not under ice blue eyes | B |
| And lips that deny | A |
| With a scornful surprise | B |
| The life it once lived in thy breast when it wore no disguise | B |
| - | |
| Should thy love die | A |
| O bury it where the sweet wild flowers blow | C |
| And breezes go by | A |
| With no whisper of woe | C |
| And strange feet cannot guess of the anguish that slumbers below | C |
| - | |
| Should thy love die | A |
| O wander once more to the haunt of the bee | D |
| Where the foliaged sky | A |
| Is most sacred to see | D |
| And thy being first felt its wild birth like a wind wakened tree | D |
| - | |
| Should thy love die | A |
| O dissemble it smile let the rose hide the thorn | E |
| While the lark sings on high | A |
| And no thing looks forlorn | E |
| Bury it bury it bury it where it was born | E |
