Esther, A Sonnet Sequence: Xxxiii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDEDAFAFGG| Such was the legend I had read it through | A |
| Twice ere I thought of thinking what it meant | B |
| And as I turned with a sigh because I knew | A |
| That I alone perhaps of all who went | B |
| Homewards that night should bid good night to none | C |
| From a side door thrust open on the street | D |
| And calling as she passed in petulant tone | E |
| To one within who seemed to rouse her heat | D |
| Ah mauvais plaisant '' ere she slammed it to | A |
| Out stepped my little woman of the Fair | F |
| Her face was altered but its form and hue | A |
| If I had doubted in the moonlight there | F |
| Was marked for me by that unaltered sign | G |
| The little scar its beauty's underline | G |
