The Sweet Hussy Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDEEFF| In his early days he was quite surprised | A |
| When she told him she was compromised | A |
| By meetings and lingerings at his whim | B |
| And thinking not of herself but him | B |
| While she lifted orbs aggrieved and round | C |
| That scandal should so soon abound | C |
| As she had raised them to nine or ten | D |
| Of antecedent nice young men | D |
| And in remorse he thought with a sigh | E |
| How good she is and how bad am I | E |
| It was years before he understood | F |
| That she was the wicked one he the good | F |
