A Maiden Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEFE GHIH GCJC| Oh if I were the velvet rose | A |
| Upon the red rose vine | B |
| I'd climb to touch his window | C |
| And make his casement fine | B |
| - | |
| And if I were the little bird | D |
| That twitters on the tree | E |
| All day I'd sing my love for him | F |
| Till he should harken me | E |
| - | |
| But since I am a maiden | G |
| I go with downcast eyes | H |
| And he will never hear the songs | I |
| That he has turned to sighs | H |
| - | |
| And since I am a maiden | G |
| My love will never know | C |
| That I could kiss him with a mouth | J |
| More red than roses blow | C |
