Villa Pauline Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABCCDDEDEEEDFGHGGII G| But ah before he came | A |
| You were only a name | A |
| Four little rooms and a cupboard | B |
| Without a bone | C |
| And I was alone | C |
| Now with your windows wide | D |
| Everything from outside | D |
| Of sun and flower and loveliness | E |
| Comes in to hide | D |
| To play to laugh on the stairs | E |
| To catch unawares | E |
| Our childish happiness | E |
| And to glide | D |
| Through the four little rooms on tip toe | F |
| With lifted finger | G |
| Pretending we shall not know When the shutters are shut | H |
| That they still linger | G |
| Long long after | G |
| Lying close in the dark | I |
| He says to me Hark | I |
| Isn't that laughter | G |
