Love's Farewell Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABACDCEFGFGHH| ave done you get no more of me | A |
| And I am glad yea glad with all my heart | B |
| That thus so cleanly I myself can free | A |
| Shake hands for ever cancel all our vows | C |
| And when we meet at any time again | D |
| Be it not seen in either of our brows | C |
| That we one jot of former love retain | E |
| Now at the last gasp of love's latest breath | F |
| When his pulse failing passion speechless lies | G |
| When faith is kneeling by his bed of death | F |
| And innocence is closing up his eyes | G |
| Now if thou would'st when all have given him over | H |
| From death to life thou might'st him yet decover | H |
