Elegiac Ii. Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDBEFGAHAHIJABTrunks the forest yielded with gums ambrosial oozing | A |
Boughs with apples laden beautiful Hesperian | B |
Golden odoriferous perfume exhaling about them | C |
Orbs in a dark umbrage luminous and radiant | D |
To the palate grateful more luscious were not in Eden | B |
Or in that fabled garden of Alcino s | E |
Out of a dark umbrage sounds also musical issued | F |
Birds their sweet transports uttering in melody | G |
Thrushes clear piping wood pigeons cooing arousing | A |
Loudly the nightingale loudly the sylvan echoes | H |
Waters transpicuous flowed under flowed to the list ning | A |
Ear with a soft murmur softly soporiferous | H |
Nor with ebon locks too there wanted circling attentive | I |
Unto the sweet fluting girls of a swarthy shepherd | J |
Over a sunny level their flocks are lazily feeding | A |
They of Amor musing rest in a leafy cavern | B |
