Parthenope To Ulysses Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACBDDEDFDF| O king what is the quest that evermore | A |
| Foredooms thy feet to roam yet blinds thine eyes | B |
| Why seek ye still for life's imperfect prize | B |
| Or turn thy weary sail from shore to shore | A |
| When here thou layest aside the ills of yore | A |
| To calm thy soul with dreams Let it suffice | C |
| This heart sick burden of the worldly wise | B |
| That ye have borne it and the task is o'er | D |
| Here see the world fade like a spark of fire | D |
| While all thy restless ways grow full of peace | E |
| And wear the fittest crown for them that tire | D |
| Their souls with life's unraveled mysteries | F |
| Above the old red roses of desire | D |
| The languid lotus of desire's surcease | F |
