Esther, A Sonnet Sequence: Liii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDBEBFGG| For Esther was a woman most complete | A |
| In all her ways of loving And with me | B |
| Dealt as one deals who careless of deceit | A |
| And rich in all things is of all things free | B |
| She did not stop with me to feel her way | C |
| Into my heart because she all hearts knew | D |
| But like some prodigal heir of yesterday | C |
| Just in possession counted not her due | D |
| And grandly gave O brave humility | B |
| O joy that kneels O pride that stoops to tears | E |
| She spent where others had demanded fee | B |
| Served where all service had of right been hers | F |
| Casting her bread of life upon love's ways | G |
| Content to find it after many days | G |
