I don't know why Mabel Loomis Todd left this one alone, but there is an easy way to fix the faulty rhyme.
This is what chafes me--"faulty rhyme"--the implicit assumption that she was some sort of primitive who did not have the refined skills of some dude in the 21st century. Play with her work all you want but stop the assumption you know what she was doing better than she did.

I'm not saying that is what you do, Julie.
