Pour Qui Sait Attendre Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABBBBBCDECFE| All things they say come home to those that wait | A |
| Riches power fame lost fortune hope deferred | B |
| Health to our friends ill hap to those we hate | A |
| Even love that glorious paradisal bird | B |
| The woman unattained whose thought has stirred | B |
| Desire to its last chord importunate | B |
| All shall be ours so runs the common word | B |
| If but our patience lag not on our fate | B |
| O indigent consoling even if true | C |
| Crumbs for the hungry who thus fasting live | D |
| And die deceived in impotence of bliss | E |
| And we the god like fortune favoured few | C |
| Full dowered of joy What ransom shall we give | F |
| In thanks to Heaven who did not wait to kiss | E |
