They Know Not My Heart Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCC DDEEFF| They know not my heart who believe there can be | A |
| One stain of this earth in its feelings for thee | A |
| Who think while I see thee in beauty's young hour | B |
| As pure as the morning's first dew on the flower | B |
| I could harm what I love as the sun's wanton ray | C |
| But smiles on the dew drop to waste it away | C |
| - | |
| No beaming with light as those young features are | D |
| There's a light round thy heart which is lovelier far | D |
| It is not that cheek 'tis the soul dawning clear | E |
| Through its innocent blush makes thy beauty so dear | E |
| As the sky we look up to though glorious and fair | F |
| Is look'd up to the more because Heaven lies there | F |
