The Deserter Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEFC GHIHI know not why or whence he came | A |
Or how he chanced to go | B |
I only know he brought me love | C |
And going left me woe | B |
- | |
I do not ask that he turn back | D |
Nor seek where he may rove | E |
For where woe rules can never be | F |
The dwelling place of love | C |
- | |
For love went out the door of hope | G |
And on and on has fled | H |
Caring no more to dwell within | I |
The house where faith is dead | H |
