Horace To Leuconoë Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CDEECDI pray you not Leucono to pore | A |
With unpermitted eyes on what may be | B |
Appointed by the gods for you and me | B |
Nor on Chaldean figures any more | A |
T were infinitely better to implore | A |
The present only whether Jove decree | B |
More winters yet to come or whether he | B |
Make even this whose hard wave eaten shore | A |
- | |
Shatters the Tuscan seas to day the last | C |
Be wise withal and rack your wine nor fill | D |
Your bosom with large hopes for while I sing | E |
The envious close of time is narrowing | E |
So seize the day or ever it be past | C |
And let the morrow come for what it will | D |
