Ave Atque Vale: 07 Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBACDEFFEF| Hast thou found any likeness for thy vision | A |
| O gardener of strange flowers what bud what bloom | B |
| Hast thou found sown what gathered in the gloom | B |
| What of despair of rapture of derision | A |
| What of life is there what of ill or good | C |
| Are the fruits grey like dust or bright like blood | D |
| Does the dim ground grow any seed of ours | E |
| The faint fields quicken any terrene root | F |
| In low lands where the sun and moon are mute | F |
| And all the stars keep silence Are there flowers | E |
| At all or any fruit | F |
