Dante To Beatrice Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCAADDAEEAFFA| I SEE thee gliding towards me with slow pace | A |
| Across the azure fields of Paradise | B |
| Where thine each footstep makes a star arise | C |
| So from this heart's once void but infinite space | A |
| Each strange sweet touch of thy celestial grace | A |
| In the old mortal life struck out some spark | D |
| To light the world though all my heaven lay dark | D |
| O Beatrice cypresses enlace | A |
| My laurels none have grown save tear bedewed | E |
| Salt tears that sank into the earth unviewed | E |
| And sprang up green to form a crown of bays | A |
| Take it At thy dear feet I lay my all | F |
| What men my honors virtues glories call | F |
| I lived loved suffered sung for thy sole praise | A |
