Revulsion Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD CECECE| THOUGH I waste watches framing words to fetter | A |
| Some spirit to mine own in clasp and kiss | B |
| Out of the night there looms a sense 'twere better | A |
| To fail obtaining whom one fails to miss | B |
| - | |
| For winning love we win the risk of losing | C |
| And losing love is as one's life were riven | D |
| It cuts like contumely and keen ill using | C |
| To cede what was superfluously given | D |
| - | |
| Let me then feel no more the fateful thrilling | C |
| That devastates the love worn wooer's frame | E |
| The hot ado of fevered hopes the chilling | C |
| That agonizes disappointed aim | E |
| So may I live no junctive law fulfilling | C |
| And my heart's table bear no woman's name | E |
