The Tear Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACDAEFGH| IT WAS a tale of passion that we read | A |
| Of two who loved not happily but well | B |
| And evermore her gentle breast did swell | B |
| Like a twin billow for her feelings fed | A |
| Upon its rhythmic grief and brimming shed | A |
| Such dews of pity as can only fall | C |
| From natures full of sweetness when the pall | D |
| Of tragedy o ershadows them with dread | A |
| Then as I looked in her raised eye there stood | E |
| A gem more excellent that ever shined | F |
| Within my spirit s transcendental sphere | G |
| And so embalmed its love with an immortal tear | H |
