Love's Chastening Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCAC| Once Love grew bold and arrogant of air | A |
| Proud of the youth that made him fresh and fair | A |
| So unto Grief he spake 'What right hast thou | B |
| To part or parcel of this heart ' Grief's brow | B |
| Was darkened with the storm of inward strife | C |
| Thrice smote he Love as only he might dare | A |
| And Love pride purged was chastened all his life | C |
