Dedication To Malcolm Nicolson Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEF| I who of lighter love wrote many a verse | A |
| Made public never words inspired by thee | B |
| Lest strangers' lips should carelessly rehearse | A |
| Things that were sacred and too dear to me | B |
| - | |
| Thy soul was noble through these fifteen years | C |
| Mine eyes familiar found no fleck nor flaw | D |
| Stern to thyself thy comrades' faults and fears | C |
| Proved generously thine only law | D |
| - | |
| Small joy was I to thee before we met | E |
| Sorrow had left thee all too sad to save | F |
| Useless my love as vain as this regret | E |
| That pours my hopeless life across thy grave | F |
