A Woman-s Sonnets: Iii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEFGG| Where is the pride for which I once was blamed | A |
| My vanity which held its head so high | B |
| Who would believe them seeing me thus tamed | A |
| Thus subject here as at thy feet I lie | B |
| Pleading for love which now is all my life | C |
| Craving a word for memory's rage to keep | D |
| Asking a sign to still my inward strife | C |
| Petitioning a touch to soothe my sleep | D |
| Who would now guess them as I kiss the ground | E |
| On which the feet of him I love have trod | F |
| And bow before his voice whose least sweet sound | E |
| Speaks louder to me than the voice of God | F |
| And knowing all the while that one dark day | G |
| Spite of my worship thou wilt turn away | G |
