Destiny Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AAA BB CC DD| Three roses wan as moonlight and weighed down | A |
| Each with its loveliness as with a crown | A |
| Drooped in a florist's window in a town | A |
| - | |
| The first a lover bought It lay at rest | B |
| Like flower on flower that night on Beauty's breast | B |
| - | |
| The second rose as virginal and fair | C |
| Shrunk in the tangles of a harlot's hair | C |
| - | |
| The third a widow with new grief made wild | D |
| Shut in the icy palm of her dead child | D |
