She, To Him, I Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEFEF| When you shall see me lined by tool of Time | A |
| My lauded beauties carried off from me | B |
| My eyes no longer stars as in their prime | A |
| My name forgot of Maiden Fair and Free | B |
| - | |
| When in your being heart concedes to mind | C |
| And judgment though you scarce its process know | D |
| Recalls the excellencies I once enshrined | C |
| And you are irked that they have withered so | D |
| - | |
| Remembering that with me lies not the blame | E |
| That Sportsman Time but rears his brood to kill | F |
| Knowing me in my soul the very same | E |
| One who would die to spare you touch of ill | F |
| Will you not grant to old affection s claim | E |
| The hand of friendship down Life s sunless hill | F |
