She Told Her Beads Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACDAAEEA| She told her beads with down cast eyes | A |
| Within the ancient chapel dim | B |
| And ever as her fingers slim | B |
| Slipt o'er th' insensate ivories | A |
| My rapt soul followed spaniel wise | A |
| Ah many were the beads she wore | C |
| But as she told them o'er and o'er | D |
| They did not number all my sighs | A |
| My heart was filled with unvoiced cries | A |
| And prayers and pleadings unexpressed | E |
| But while I burned with Love's unrest | E |
| She told her beads with down cast eyes | A |
