Rubies Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDED FGFH| They brought me rubies from the mine | A |
| And held them to the sun | B |
| I said they are drops of frozen wine | A |
| From Eden's vats that run | B |
| - | |
| I looked again I thought them hearts | C |
| Of friends to friends unknown | D |
| Tides that should warm each neighboring life | E |
| Are locked in sparkling stone | D |
| - | |
| But fire to thaw that ruddy snow | F |
| To break enchanted ice | G |
| And give love's scarlet tides to flow | F |
| When shall that sun arise | H |
