Written In A Volume Of The Comtesse De Noailles Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFGHHG| Be my companion under cool arcades | A |
| That frame some drowsy street and dazzling square | B |
| Beyond whose flowers and palm tree promenades | A |
| White belfries burn in the blue tropic air | B |
| Lie near me in dim forests where the croon | C |
| Of wood doves sounds and moss banked water flows | D |
| Or musing late till the midsummer moon | C |
| Breaks through some ruined abbey's empty rose | D |
| Sweetest of those to day whose pious hands | E |
| Tend the sequestered altar of Romance | F |
| Where fewer offerings burn and fewer kneel | G |
| Pour there your passionate beauty on my heart | H |
| And gladdening such solitudes impart | H |
| How sweet the fellowship of those who feel | G |
