Before The World Was Made Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEFE GHIJKELE| If I make the lashes dark | A |
| And the eyes more bright | B |
| And the lips more scarlet | C |
| Or ask if all be right | B |
| From mirror after mirror | D |
| No vanity's displayed | E |
| I'm looking for the face I had | F |
| Before the world was made | E |
| - | |
| What if I look upon a man | G |
| As though on my beloved | H |
| And my blood be cold the while | I |
| And my heart unmoved | J |
| Why should he think me cruel | K |
| Or that he is betrayed | E |
| I'd have him love the thing that was | L |
| Before the world was made | E |
