Moonlight (ambitious) Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCABCDBDCEFCEG| Ambitious of their solitary reign | A |
| Whose many pointed brilliance fills the sky | B |
| The silver moon doth rise in majesty | C |
| And with her splendor shares the stars' domain | A |
| Now as she takes her lucent course on high | B |
| Her light doth shroud all things in mystery | C |
| And subtle glamour As of realms unknown | D |
| It seems a radiance from worlds that lie | B |
| Beyond our ken and glimpsed in dreams alone | D |
| And in those rays is tender witchery | C |
| Which softly doth erase the scars of day | E |
| And with a pallid beauty touches all | F |
| The Moon's light is a painter's brush and she | C |
| An artist skilled who doth the world array | E |
| In silence with a white enchanted pall | G |
