Ave Atque Vale: 05 Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBACCCCCCC

It is enough the end and the beginningA
Are one thing to thee who art past the endB
O hand unclasped of unbeholden friendB
For thee no fruits to pluck no palms for winningA
No triumph and no labour and no lustC
Only dead yew leaves and a little dustC
O quiet eyes wherein the light saith noughtC
Whereto the day is dumb nor any nightC
With obscure finger silences your sightC
Nor in your speech the sudden soul speaks thoughtC
Sleep and have sleep for lightC

Algernon Charles Swinburne
