The Independent Man Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCABDEB FF

Now who could take you off to tiny lifeA
In one room or in two rooms or in threeB
And cork you smartly like the flask of wineC
You are Not any woman Not a wifeA
You'd let her twirl you give her a good gleeB
Showing your leaping ruby to a friendD
Though twirling would be meek Since not a corkE
Could you allow for being made so freeB
-
A woman would be wise to think it wellF
If once a week you only rang the bellF
