Madrigal Of Memory Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCCB DDEFD GGBBG BBHHB IIJJI| To my remote abandonment | A |
| Your deep and lustrous hair has lent | B |
| How many an autumn colored dream | C |
| Your eyes bring many an April gleam | C |
| To this my place of uncontent | B |
| - | |
| Like torchy fires your footsteps leap | D |
| Where covens of lost dreamers keep | D |
| Their sabbat and their bacchanal | E |
| Your breasts are moons that mount and fall | F |
| Through the dim turbulent climes of sleep | D |
| - | |
| Among the rondured hills that merge | G |
| Into the prone horizon verge | G |
| My haunted eyes have seen have felt | B |
| Your mobile hips at twilight melt | B |
| Your supple bosom lift and surge | G |
| - | |
| In dryad ways not understood | B |
| You stir and whisper through the wood | B |
| Far off the throbbing waters flow | H |
| Against a sanguine afterglow | H |
| Like the sweet pulses of your blood | B |
| - | |
| At morning from the cloudy south | I |
| Your tresses sweep athwart my drouth | I |
| Night bears amid its magic bower | J |
| Your body's many scented flower | J |
| And bud and blossom of your mouth | I |
