Rhyme Scheme: ABBACDBAEEFGFG

MORE yet and more and yet we mark not allA
The Warning fain to bid fair women heedB
Its hard brief note of deadly doom and deedB
The verse that strewed too thick with flowers the hallA
Whence Nero watched his fiery festivalC
That iron page wherein men s eyes who readD
See bruised and marred between two babes that bleedB
A mad red handed husband s martyr fallA
The scene which crossed and streaked with mirth the strifeE
Of Henry with his sons and witchlike wifeE
And that sweet pageant of the kindly fiendF
Who seeing three friends in spirit and heart made oneG
Crowned with good hap the true love wiles he screenedF
In the pleached lanes of pleasant EdmontonG

Algernon Charles Swinburne
