Esther, A Sonnet Sequence: Lvi Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEFGG| Who has not wept with Manon Of all tales | A |
| That thrill youth's fancy or to tears or mirth | B |
| None other is there where such grief prevails | A |
| Such passionate pity for the loves of Earth | B |
| Who has not wept with Manon in her sin | C |
| Wept in her punishment What angry heart | D |
| Has been unmoved in youth to see her win | C |
| With those sad archers to the inhuman cart | D |
| Who has not followed her beyond the seas | E |
| And sold his life for her and bowed his pride | F |
| And sinned all sins to buy her back to ease | E |
| And died all deaths to venge her when she died | F |
| And I blest boy who each new happy night | G |
| When all was done still lived in her delight | G |
