The Sisters Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCD EFEG HIJK| Look how the same possibilities | A |
| unfold in their opposite demeanors | B |
| as though one saw different ages | C |
| passing through two identical rooms | D |
| - | |
| Each thinks that she props up the other | E |
| while resting wearily on her support | F |
| and they can't make use of one another | E |
| for they cause blood to rest on blood | G |
| - | |
| when as in the former times they softly touch | H |
| and try along the tree lined walks | I |
| to feel themselves conducted and to lead | J |
| ah the ways they go are not the same | K |
