Thee, Thee, Only Thee Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABCDCEB FFBGHGHB AABIFIFB| The dawning of morn the daylight's sinking | A |
| The night's long hours still find me thinking | A |
| Of thee thee only thee | B |
| When friends are met and goblets crown'd | C |
| And smiles are near that once enchanted | D |
| Unreach'd by all that sunshine round | C |
| My soul like some dark spot is haunted | E |
| By thee thee only thee | B |
| - | |
| Whatever in fame's high path could waken | F |
| My spirit once is now forsaken | F |
| For thee thee only thee | B |
| Like shores by which some headlong bark | G |
| To the ocean hurries resting never | H |
| Life's scenes go by me bright or dark | G |
| I know not heed not hastening ever | H |
| To thee thee only thee | B |
| - | |
| I have not a joy but of thy bringing | A |
| And pain itself seems sweet when springing | A |
| From thee thee only thee | B |
| Like spells that nought on earth can break | I |
| Till lips that know the charm have spoken | F |
| This heart howe'er the world may wake | I |
| Its grief its scorn can but be broken | F |
| By thee thee only thee | B |
