To Her Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABB CCDE FFFF| Your presence like a benison to me | A |
| Wakes my sick soul to dreamful ecstasy | A |
| I fancy that some old Arabian night | B |
| Saw you my houri and my heart's delight | B |
| - | |
| And wandering forth beneath the passionate moon | C |
| Your love strung zither and my soul in tune | C |
| We knew the joy the haunting of the pain | D |
| That like a flame thrills through me now again | E |
| - | |
| To night we sit where sweet the spice winds blow | F |
| A wind the northland lacks and ne'er shall know | F |
| With clasped hands and spirits all aglow | F |
| As in Arabia in the long ago | F |
