Dantis Tenebrae (in Memory Of My Father) Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGEEHEEIE| AND didst thou know indeed when at the font | A |
| Together with thy name thou gav'st me his | B |
| That also on thy son must Beatrice | C |
| Decline her eyes according to her wont | D |
| Accepting me to be of those that haunt | E |
| The vale of magical dark mysteries | F |
| Where to the hills her poet's foot track lies | G |
| And wisdom's living fountain to his chaunt | E |
| Trembles in music This is that steep land | E |
| Where he that holds his journey stands at gaze | H |
| Tow'rd sunset when the clouds like a new height | E |
| Seem piled to climb These things I understand | E |
| For here where day still soothes my lifted face | I |
| On thy bowed head my father fell the night | E |
