Love's Doubt. Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBA CDDD EFGH IHEI HDDE JDDJ| 'Tis love that blinds my heart and eyes | A |
| I sometimes say in doubting dreams | B |
| The face that near me perfect seems | B |
| Cold Memory paints in fainter dyes | A |
| - | |
| 'Twas but love's dazzled eyes I say | C |
| That made her seem so strangely bright | D |
| The face I worshipped yesternight | D |
| I dread to meet it changed to day | D |
| - | |
| As when dies out some song's refrain | E |
| And leaves your eyes in happy tears | F |
| Awake the same fond idle fears | G |
| It cannot sound so sweet again | H |
| - | |
| You wait and say with vague annoy | I |
| It will not sound so sweet again | H |
| Until comes back the wild refrain | E |
| That floods your soul with treble joy | I |
| - | |
| So when I see my love again | H |
| Fades the unquiet doubt away | D |
| While shines her beauty like the day | D |
| Over my happy heart and brain | E |
| - | |
| And in that face I see no more | J |
| The fancied faults I idly dreamed | D |
| But all the charms that fairest seemed | D |
| I find them fairer than before | J |
