The Sisters Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCD EFEG HIJKLook 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 |
