A Woman-s Sonnets: I Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEDEFGFGHHIf the past year were offered me again | A |
With choice of good and ill before me set | B |
Should I be wiser for the bliss and pain | C |
And dare to choose that we had never met | B |
Could I find heart those happy hours to miss | D |
When love began unthought of and unspoke | E |
That first strange day when by a sudden kiss | D |
We knew each other's secret and awoke | E |
Ah no not even to escape the smart | F |
Of that fell agony I underwent | G |
Flying from thee and my own traitor heart | F |
Till doubts and dreads and battlings overspent | G |
I knew at last that thou or love or fate | H |
Had conquered and repentance was too late | H |
