Hate Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABCADDEEFFDG DHHII| My enemy came nigh | A |
| And I | A |
| Stared fiercely in his face | B |
| My lips went writhing back in a grimace | C |
| And stern I watched him with a narrow eye | A |
| Then as I turned away my enemy | D |
| That bitter heart and savage said to me | D |
| 'Some day when this is past | E |
| When all the arrows that we have are cast | E |
| We may ask one another why we hate | F |
| And fail to find a story to relate | F |
| It may seem then to us a mystery | D |
| That we should hate each other ' | G |
| - | |
| Thus said he | D |
| And did not turn away | H |
| Waiting to hear what I might have to say | H |
| But I fled quickly fearing had I stayed | I |
| I might have kissed him as I would a maid | I |
