I Will Not Let Thee Go Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABA ACACA ADADA AEAEA AFGFA AHAIA AJAJA

I will not let thee goA
Ends all our month long love in thisB
Can it be summed up soA
Quit in a single kissB
I will not let thee goA
-
I will not let thee goA
If thy words' breath could scare thy deedsC
As the soft south can blowA
And toss the feathered seedsC
Then might I let thee goA
-
I will not let thee goA
Had not the great sun seen I mightD
Or were he reckoned slowA
To bring the false to lightD
Then might I let thee goA
-
I will not let thee goA
The stars that crowd the summer skiesE
Have watched us so belowA
With all their million eyesE
I dare not let thee goA
-
I will not let thee goA
Have we chid the changeful moonF
Now rising late and nowG
Because she set too soonF
And shall I let thee goA
-
I will not let thee goA
Have not the young flowers been contentH
Plucked ere their buds could blowA
To seal our sacramentI
I cannot let thee goA
-
I will not let thee goA
I hold thee by too many bandsJ
Thou sayest farewell and loA
I have thee by the handsJ
And will not let thee goA
