Sonnet: "i Said I Splendidly Loved You; It's Not True" Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEGHH| I said I splendidly loved you it's not true | A |
| Such long swift tides stir not a land locked sea | B |
| On gods or fools the high risk falls on you | A |
| The clean clear bitter sweet that's not for me | B |
| Love soars from earth to ecstasies unwist | C |
| Love is flung Lucifer like from Heaven to Hell | D |
| But there are wanderers in the middle mist | C |
| Who cry for shadows clutch and cannot tell | D |
| Whether they love at all or loving whom | E |
| An old song's lady a fool in fancy dress | F |
| Or phantoms or their own face on the gloom | E |
| For love of Love or from heart's loneliness | G |
| Pleasure's not theirs nor pain They doubt and sigh | H |
| And do not love at all Of these am I | H |
