To A Silent Girl Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBC DEED FGGF HHWhen the sklll'd fashioner of female faces | A |
Designed your mask he wrought with cunning fist | B |
And made a mouth expressly to be kiss'd | B |
Not for shrill utterance nor pert grimaces | C |
- | |
The curved ripe lips above the rounded chin | D |
He dyed the hue of summer's reddest rose | E |
Then placed a smile upon them to disclose | E |
A glimpse of white and even pearls within | D |

Those lips are silent sweetheart but your eyes | F |
Are eloquent and they love's lesson teach | G |
Better than other woman's aptest speech | G |
In their soft light the tend'rest language lies | F |
- | |
In womankind the world has long confess'd | H |
A silent mouth and speaking eyes are best | H |
