A Woman-s Sonnets: Vii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEFGHIHJKK| What have I gained A little charity | A |
| I never more may dare to fling a stone | B |
| At any weakness nor make boast that I | C |
| A better fence or fortitude had shown | B |
| Some learning I in love's lore have grown wise | D |
| Plucked apples of the evil and the good | E |
| Made one short trespass into Paradise | F |
| And known the full taste of forbidden food | G |
| But love if it be gold has much alloy | H |
| And I would gladly buy back ignorance | I |
| But for the thought which still is my heart's joy | H |
| That once your life grew happier in my hands | J |
| That in your darkest and most troubled hour | K |
| I had like Jesse's son a soothing power | K |
