The Secret Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEF| I loved thee though I told thee not | A |
| Right earlily and long | B |
| Thou wert my joy in every spot | A |
| My theme in every song | B |
| And when I saw a stranger face | C |
| Where beauty held the claim | D |
| I gave it like a secret grace | C |
| The being of thy name | D |
| And all the charms of face or voice | E |
| Which I in others see | F |
| Are but the recollected choice | E |
| Of what I felt for thee | F |
