Freedom And Love Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AAAAAABBCCDDBBEEBBFF AAAA| How delicious is the winning | A |
| Of a kiss at love's beginning | A |
| When two mutual hearts are sighing | A |
| For the knot there's no untying | A |
| Yet remember 'Midst our wooing | A |
| Love has bliss but Love has ruing | A |
| Other smiles may make you fickle | B |
| Tears for other charms may trickle | B |
| Love he comes and Love he tarries | C |
| Just as fate or fancy carries | C |
| Longest stays when sorest chidden | D |
| Laughs and flies when press'd and bidden | D |
| Bind the sea to slumber stilly | B |
| Bind its odour to the lily | B |
| Bind the aspen ne'er to quiver | E |
| Then bind Love to last for ever | E |
| Love's a fire that needs renewal | B |
| Of fresh beauty for its fuel | B |
| Love's wing moults when caged and captured | F |
| Only free he soars enraptured | F |
| Can you keep the bee from ranging | A |
| Or the ringdove's neck from changing | A |
| No nor fetter'd Love from dying | A |
| In the knot there's no untying | A |
