Because Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDD BBEEBBEE| Oh because you never tried | A |
| To bow my will or break my pride | A |
| And nothing of the cave man made | B |
| You want to keep me half afraid | B |
| Nor ever with a conquering air | C |
| You thought to draw me unaware | C |
| Take me for I love you more | D |
| Than I ever loved before | D |
| - | |
| And since the body's maidenhood | B |
| Alone were neither rare nor good | B |
| Unless with it I gave to you | E |
| A spirit still untrammeled too | E |
| Take my dreams and take my mind | B |
| That were masterless as wind | B |
| And Master I shall say to you | E |
| Since you never asked me to | E |
