Last Love [canzone] Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEFG HH IJJI ACG KLLove hath a chamber all of imagery | A |
And there is one dim nook | B |
A little storied web wherein my heart | C |
From leaf to leaf is read as in a book | B |
- | |
One part in the middle of the web begun and left unfinished | D |
a face with ravelled threads falling over it and hiding it Love says | E |
that the time has come to resume and finish this part of the web | F |
though much has come between since it was begun | G |
- | |
For the garlands of heaven were all laid by | H |
And the Daylight sucked at the breasts of a Lie | H |
- | |
The wounded heart and the dying swan | I |
Were side by side | J |
Where the rushes coil with the turn of the tide | J |
The hart and the swan | I |
- | |
Withinthose eyes the sedulous yearning throe | A |
And all the evil of my heart | C |
A thousand times forgotten | G |
- | |
Ah if you had been lost for many years | K |
And from the dead to day were risen again | L |
