Farewell To Italy Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEDEFGFGHH| Incomparable Italy farewell | A |
| Tears not unmanly trespass to the eyes | B |
| From thy soft touch and glance unspeakable | C |
| Compelled to turn and suffer other skies | B |
| E'en as I leave thee the maternal vine | D |
| Under the weight of clustering fruitage bends | E |
| And the plump fig beyond where tendrils twine | D |
| Shows greener moister as the sap ascends | E |
| When I return as I most surely will | F |
| Me will salute the thirst dispelling grape | G |
| Purple or opal and when noon is still | F |
| The snow cold fruit provoke permitted rape | G |
| Even dear land flourish thy fortunes so | H |
| Which formed need only interval to grow | H |
