Soul's Beauty Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCADBBD EFGGFEUnder the arch of Life where love and death | A |
Terror and mystery guard her shrine I saw | B |
Beauty enthroned and though her gaze struck awe | C |
I drew it in as simply as my breath | A |
Hers are the eyes which over and beneath | D |
The sky and sea bend on thee which can draw | B |
By sea or sky or woman to one law | B |
The allotted bondman of her palm and wreath | D |
- | |
This is that Lady Beauty in whose praise | E |
Thy voice and hand shake still long known to thee | F |
By flying hair and fluttering hem the beat | G |
Following her daily of thy heart and feet | G |
How passionately and irretrievably | F |
In what fond flight how many ways and days | E |
