Frater Ave Atque Vale Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: A B BBBBBBC

'Frater Ave atque Vale'A
-
Row us out from Desenzano to your Sirmione rowB
So they row'd and there we landed 'O venusta Sirmio '-
There to me thro' all the groves of olive in the summer glowB
There beneath the Roman ruin where the purple flowers growB
Came that 'Ave atque Vale' of the Poet's hopeless woeB
Tenderest of Roman poets nineteen hundred years agoB
'Frater Ave atque Vale' as we wander'd to and froB
Gazing at the Lydian laughter of the Garda Lake belowB
Sweet Catullus's all but island olive silvery SirmioC
