On Tasso In Prison (eugène Delacroix-s Painting) Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCCDDEEFGHHIJ| The poet in his cell unkempt and sick | A |
| who crushes underfoot a manuscript | B |
| measures with a gaze that horror has inflamed | C |
| the stair of madness where his soul was maimed | C |
| The intoxicating laughter that fills his prison | D |
| with the absurd and the strange swamps his reason | D |
| Doubt surrounds him and ridiculous fear | E |
| hideous and multiform circles near | E |
| That genius pent up in a foul sty | F |
| those spectres those grimaces the cries | G |
| whirling in a swarm about his hair | H |
| that dreamer whom his lodging s terrors bare | H |
| such are your emblems Soul singer of songs obscure | I |
| whom Reality suffocates behind four walls | J |
