Song Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDED EFEFGHGH GIGIJCJC| Oh Love they said is King of Kings | A |
| And Triumph is his crown | B |
| Earth fades in flame before his wings | A |
| And Sun and Moon bow down | B |
| But that I knew would never do | C |
| And Heaven is all too high | D |
| So whenever I meet a Queen I said | E |
| I will not catch her eye | D |
| - | |
| Oh Love they said and Love they said | E |
| The gift of Love is this | F |
| A crown of thorns about thy head | E |
| And vinegar to thy kiss | F |
| But Tragedy is not for me | G |
| And I'm content to be gay | H |
| So whenever I spied a Tragic Lady | G |
| I went another way | H |
| - | |
| And so I never feared to see | G |
| You wander down the street | I |
| Or come across the fields to me | G |
| On ordinary feet | I |
| For what they'd never told me of | J |
| And what I never knew | C |
| It was that all the time my love | J |
| Love would be merely you | C |
