The Welcome And Farewell. Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCD EFEFGHEH| To meet and part as we have met and parted | A |
| One moment cherished and the next forgot | B |
| To wear a smile when almost broken hearted | A |
| I know full well is hapless woman's lot | B |
| Yet let me to thy tenderness appealing | C |
| Avert this brief but melancholy doom | D |
| Content that close beside the thorn of feeling | C |
| Grows memory like a rose in guarded bloom | D |
| - | |
| Love's history dearest is a sad one ever | E |
| Yet often with a smile I've heard it told | F |
| Oh there are records of the heart which never | E |
| Are to the scrutinizing gaze unrolled | F |
| My eyes to thine may scarce again aspire | G |
| Still in thy memory dearest let me dwell | H |
| And hush with this hope the magnetic wire | E |
| Wild with our mingled welcome and farewell | H |
