To Memory Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCC DDEEDDStrange Power I know not what thou art | A |
Murderer or mistress of my heart | A |
I know I'd rather meet the blow | B |
Of my most unrelenting foe | B |
Than live as now I live to be | C |
Slain twenty times a day by thee | C |
- | |
Yet when I would command thee hence | D |
Thou mockest at the vain pretence | D |
Murmuring in mine ear a song | E |
Once loved alas forgotten long | E |
And on my brow I feel a kiss | D |
That I would rather die than miss | D |
