I Love But Thee Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABAA CDCDCA EFEFEA| If after all you still will doubt and fear me | A |
| And think this heart to other loves will stray | B |
| If I must swear then lovely doubter hear me | A |
| By every dream I have when thou'rt away | B |
| By every throb I feel when thou art near me | A |
| I love but thee I love but thee | A |
| - | |
| By those dark eyes where light is ever playing | C |
| Where Love in depth of shadow holds his throne | D |
| And by those lips which give whate'er thou'rt saying | C |
| Or grave or gay a music of its own | D |
| A music far beyond all minstrel's playing | C |
| I love but thee I love but thee | A |
| - | |
| By that fair brow where Innocence reposes | E |
| As pure as moonlight sleeping upon snow | F |
| And by that cheek whose fleeting blush discloses | E |
| A hue too bright to bless this world below | F |
| And only fit to dwell on Eden's roses | E |
| I love but thee I love but thee | A |
