Ave Atque Vale: 02 Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBBCCDEFDF| For always thee the fervid languid glories | A |
| Allured of heavier suns in mightier skies | B |
| Thine ears knew all the wandering watery sighs | B |
| Where the sea sobs round Lesbian promontories | B |
| The barren kiss of piteous wave to wave | C |
| That knows not where is that Leucadian grave | C |
| Which hides too deep the supreme head of song | D |
| Ah salt and sterile as her kisses were | E |
| The wild sea winds her and the green gulfs bear | F |
| Hither and thither and vex and work her wrong | D |
| Blind gods that cannot spare | F |
