How to list the vertices over a selected edge in Maya via Python

I have a scenario, where I need to snap an Object B over the vertices of a selected edge of Object A. I need to know, how to list all the vertices of a selected polyObject edge in a sequence, so that I can duplicate and snap the objects to required vertices based on my requirement. Like snap to every alternate vertex.

Your suggestions are so valuable to me.

Thanks in advance.

This is a MEL version:

polyCube -sx 1 -sy 1 -sz 1 ;
select -r pCube1.e[7] ;
PolySelectConvert 3 ;
select -d pCube1.e[7] ;
$allComponents = `ls -selection` ;
print ( $allComponents ) ;

// print ( $allComponents[0] ) ;
// print ( $allComponents[1] ) ;

This is a Python version:

import maya.cmds as mc

mc.polyCube( sx=1, sy=1, sz=1 )
mc.select( 'pCube1.e[7]' )
mc.select( mc.polyListComponentConversion( tv=True ) ) 
allComponents = mc.ls( sl=True )
print( allComponents )

# print( allComponents[0] )
# print( allComponents[1] )
