A Woman-s Sonnets: V Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABACDEDEFGHGIIWhate'er the cost to me with this farewell | A |
I shall not see thee speak to thee again | B |
If some on Earth must feel the pangs of Hell | A |
Mine only be it who have earned my pain | C |
No matter if my life be blank and dead | D |
Bankrupt of pleasure it is better so | E |
Than risk dishonour on a once loved head | D |
Than link all loved ones with my own sole woe | E |
I have no claim to bring grief's shade on these | F |
To mix their pure life's waters with my wine | G |
To vex the dead dear dead in their new peace | H |
With knowledge of my sin and great decline | G |
For these I leave thee and though life be rent | I |
With the rude fight think not I shall relent | I |
