Botticelli's Madonna In The Louvre Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACCA DEDEF| WHAT strange presentiment O Mother lies | A |
| On thy waste brow and sadly folded lips | B |
| Forefeeling the Light's terrible eclipse | B |
| On Calvary as if love made thee wise | A |
| And thou couldst read in those dear infant eyes | A |
| The sorrow that beneath their smiling sleeps | C |
| And guess what bitter tears a mother weeps | C |
| When the cross darkens her unclouded skies | A |
| - | |
| - | |
| Sad Lady if some mother passing thee | D |
| Should feel a throb of thy foreboding pain | E |
| And think 'My child at home clings so to me | D |
| With the same smile and yet in vain in vain | E |
| Since even this Jesus died on Calvary' | F |
| Say to her then 'He also rose again ' | - |
