The Independent Man Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCABDEB FFNow who could take you off to tiny life | A |
In one room or in two rooms or in three | B |
And cork you smartly like the flask of wine | C |
You are Not any woman Not a wife | A |
You'd let her twirl you give her a good glee | B |
Showing your leaping ruby to a friend | D |
Though twirling would be meek Since not a cork | E |
Could you allow for being made so free | B |
- | |
A woman would be wise to think it well | F |
If once a week you only rang the bell | F |
