Never The Time And The Place Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABACDCDDCCEFFEGHII II| Never the time and the place | A |
| And the loved one all together | B |
| This path how soft to pace | A |
| This May what magic weather | B |
| Where is the loved one's face | A |
| In a dream that loved one's face meets mine | C |
| But the house is narrow the place is bleak | D |
| Where outside rain and wind combine | C |
| With a furtive ear if I strive to speak | D |
| With a hostile eye at my flushing cheek | D |
| With a malice that marks each word each sign | C |
| O enemy sly and serpentine | C |
| Uncoil thee from the waking man | E |
| Do I hold the Past | F |
| Thus firm and fast | F |
| Yet doubt if the Future hold I can | E |
| This path so soft to pace shall lead | G |
| Thro' the magic of May to herself indeed | H |
| Or narrow if needs the house must be | I |
| Outside are the storms and strangers we | I |
| Oh close safe warm sleep I and she | I |
| I and she | I |
