Wine Of Summer Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBCCA DCCEED FGGHHF ICCBBI| From the deep azure chalice of the sky | A |
| Inverted on the vale | B |
| And hot horizons pale | B |
| The philtered wine of summer drains away | C |
| It was but yesterday | C |
| We drank that draft together you and I | A |
| - | |
| Here in the grove the fallen needles bear | D |
| Broken and disarrayed | C |
| The print our presence made | C |
| O haunted hollow left by your sweet form | E |
| How the swift tears are warm | E |
| In eyes that seek and cannot find you there | D |
| - | |
| It seems the selfsame wind is in the pine | F |
| That sighed or sank above | G |
| Our ecstasy and love | G |
| But now no dryad face no dryad voice | H |
| Shall make my heart rejoice | H |
| No dear Bacchante wear the wilding vine | F |
| - | |
| O love no other lips than ours have known | I |
| How sweet the wine how sweet | C |
| With honey and soft heat | C |
| Mingling within that blissful magistral | B |
| And yet how sadly fall | B |
| The slow slow drops for him that drinks alone | I |
