Two Years Later Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCCDEDECCHas no one said those daring | A |
Kind eyes should be more learn'd | B |
Or warned you how despairing | A |
The moths are when they are burned | B |
I could have warned you but you are young | C |
So we speak a different tongue | C |
O you will take whatever's offered | D |
And dream that all the world's a friend | E |
Suffer as your mother suffered | D |
Be as broken in the end | E |
But I am old and you are young | C |
And I speak a barbarous tongue | C |
