Her Confession Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CACA DEDE AA F| As some bland soul to whom a debtor says | A |
| I'll now repay the amount I owe to you | B |
| In inward gladness feigns forgetfulness | A |
| That such a payment ever was his due | B |
| - | |
| His long thought notwithstanding so did I | C |
| At our last meeting waive your proffered kiss | A |
| With quick divergent talk of scenery nigh | C |
| By such suspension to enhance my bliss | A |
| - | |
| And as his looks in consternation fall | D |
| When gathering that the debt is lightly deemed | E |
| The debtor makes as not to pay at all | D |
| So faltered I when your intention seemed | E |
| - | |
| Converted by my false uneagerness | A |
| To putting off for ever the caress | A |
| - | |
| W P V | F |
