From Pocahontas Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AABBCD EEBBFGHIJJ

Returning from the cruel fightA
How pale and faint appears my knightA
He sees me anxious at his sideB
'Why seek my love your wounds to hideB
Or deem your English girl afraidC
To emulate the Indian maid 'D
-
Be mine my husband's grief to cheerE
In peril to be ever nearE
Whate'er of ill or woe betideB
To bear it clinging at his sideB
The poisoned stroke of fate to wardF
His bosom with my own to guardG
Ah could it spare a pang to hisH
It could not know a purer blissI
'Twould gladden as it felt the smartJ
And thank the hand that flung the dartJ
