A Worn Rose Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABACBACD AEFGDEAG| Where to day would a dainty buyer | A |
| Imbibe your scented juice | B |
| Pale ruin with a heart of fire | A |
| Drain your succulence with her lips | C |
| Grown sapless from much use | B |
| Make minister of her desire | A |
| A chalice cup where no bee sips | C |
| Where no wasp wanders in | D |
| - | |
| Close to her white flesh housed an hour | A |
| One held you her spent form | E |
| Drew on yours for its wasted dower | F |
| What favour could she do you more | G |
| Yet of all who drink therein | D |
| None know it is the warm | E |
| Odorous heart of a ravished flower | A |
| Tingles so in her mouth's red core | G |
