A Woman-s Sonnets: Vi Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEFGG| What have I lost The faith I had that Right | A |
| Must surely prove itself than Ill more strong | B |
| For see how little my poor prayers had might | A |
| To save me at the trial's pinch from wrong | B |
| What have I lost The truth of my proud eyes | C |
| Scorning deceit Behold me here to day | D |
| Leading a double life at shifts with lies | C |
| And trembling lest each shadow should betray | D |
| No longer with my lost ones may I mourn | E |
| Who came to me in sleep and breathed soft words | F |
| Sleepless I lie and fearful and forlorn | E |
| With their love's edge still wounding like a sword's | F |
| In thy dear presence only I find rest | G |
| To thee alone naught needs to be confessed | G |
