The Choice Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCD AEAECFCF CGCGCECEEAnd then I came to Three ways | A |
And each was mine to choose | B |
For all of them were free ways | A |
To take or to refuse | B |
Now which shall be the best way | C |
East West or South said I | D |
So then I went the West way | C |
I often wonder why | D |
- | |
And then I cam to Two ways | A |
And each was luring me | E |
For both of them were new ways | A |
And I was fancy free | E |
Now which shall be the least way | C |
Said I to gain my goal | F |
And so I took the East way | C |
With freedom in my soul | F |
- | |
And then I came to One way | C |
And to the South it ran | G |
Then lo I saw this sun way | C |
Was mine since time began | G |
My pitiless my doom way | C |
No other could there be | E |
For at its end my tomb lay | C |
And it was waiting me | E |
Poor fools Who think you're free | E |
