Esther, A Sonnet Sequence: Xlix Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABACDEFEGHGHIJ| I will not tell the secrets of that place | A |
| When Madame Blanche returned to us again | B |
| I was kneeling there while Esther kissed my face | A |
| And dried and comforted my tears O vain | C |
| And happy tears O griefs thrice comforted | D |
| I trembled but not with fear If I was dumb | E |
| 'Twas not for lack of speech where all was said | F |
| My doubts were ended and my fears o'ercome | E |
| And joy had triumphed Life has given me much | G |
| And pleasure much and Heaven may yet have store | H |
| Of nobler hopes to kindle and to touch | G |
| But never for all time ah never more | H |
| That delicate dawn of wonder when lips move | I |
| First to the love of life and love of love | J |
