To H.r.h. Princess Beatrice Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHAIGJDDKLMAFE NO| Two Suns of Love make day of human life | A |
| Which else with all its pains and griefs and deaths | B |
| Were utter darkness one the Sun of dawn | C |
| That brightens thro' the Mother's tender eyes | D |
| And warms the child's awakening world and one | E |
| The later rising Sun of spousal Love | F |
| Which from her household orbit draws the child | G |
| To move in other spheres The Mother weeps | H |
| At that white funeral of the single life | A |
| Her maiden daughter's marriage and her tears | I |
| Are half of pleasure half of pain the child | G |
| Is happy even in leaving her but thou | J |
| True daughter whose all faithful filial eyes | D |
| Have seen the loneliness of earthly thrones | D |
| Wilt neither quit the widow'd Crown nor let | K |
| This later light of Love have risen in vain | L |
| But moving thro' the Mother's home between | M |
| The two that love thee lead a summer life | A |
| Sway'd by each Love and swaying to each Love | F |
| Like some conjectured planet in mid heaven | E |
| Between two suns and drawing down from both | N |
| The light and genial warmth of double day | O |
