A Warning Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCCDD EFGFHHII| We that were born beloved so far apart | A |
| So many seas and lands | B |
| The gods one sudden day joined heart to heart | A |
| Locked hands in hands | B |
| Distance relented and became our friend | C |
| And met for our sakes world's end with world's end | C |
| The earth was centred in one flowering plot | D |
| Beneath thy feet and all the rest was not | D |
| - | |
| Now wouldst thou rend our nearness and again | E |
| Bring distance back and place | F |
| Poles and equators mountain range and plain | G |
| Between me and thy face | F |
| Undoing what the gods divinely planned | H |
| Heart canst thou part hand loose me from thy hand | H |
| Not twice the gods their slighted gifts bestow | I |
| Bethink thee well beloved ere thou dost go | I |
