Ave Atque Vale: 15 Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAAACDDCD| And one weeps with him in the ways Lethean | A |
| And stains with tears her changing bosom chill | B |
| That obscure Venus of the hollow hill | B |
| That thing transformed which was the Cytherean | A |
| With lips that lost their Grecian laugh divine | A |
| Long since and face no more called Erycine | A |
| A ghost a bitter and luxurious god | C |
| Thee also with fair flesh and singing spell | D |
| Did she a sad and second prey compel | D |
| Into the footless places once more trod | C |
| And shadows hot from hell | D |
