A Woman-s Sonnets: Xi Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEDFGHGHIIWild words I write and lettered in deep pain | A |
To lay in your loved hand as love's farewell | B |
It is the thought we shall not meet again | C |
Nerves me to write and my whole secret tell | B |
For when I speak to you you only jest | D |
And laughing break the sentence with a kiss | E |
Till my poor love is never quite confessed | D |
Nor know you half its tears and tenderness | F |
When the first darkness and the clouds began | G |
I hid it from you fearing your reproof | H |
I would not vex your life's high aim and plan | G |
With my poor woman's woe and held aloof | H |
But now that all is ended pride and shame | I |
My tumults and my joys I may proclaim | I |
