Possession Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACADDCAMOST blessed one how can I let thee go | A |
Canst thou forswear the nightingale its tune | B |
Stay the young sea from following his moon | B |
Bid hyacinth put out her blue light Oh | A |
Thou art not mine but Me and being so | A |
How canst thou bid my year stop short of June | B |
Or hold my feet from following thine so soon | B |
Or bid me build on Heaven's overthrow | A |
Nay how can I put off thy presence Where | C |
Should my soul serve without thy sanctities | A |
I kneel beside thee I who am a child | D |
In thy man's hand cling to thee spent and wild | D |
Until my face is hidden in my hair | C |
And I fall weeping weeping at they knees | A |
