At Fontainebleau Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBACBBA DEFDE FAt Fontainebleau I saw a little bed | A |
Fashioned of polished wood with gold ornate | B |
Ambition hope and sorrow ay and hate | B |
Once battled there above a childish head | A |
And there in vain grief wept and memory plead | C |
It was so small but Ah dear God how great | B |
The part it played in one sad woman's fate | B |
How wide the gloom that narrow object shed | A |
- | |
The symbol of an over reaching aim | D |
The emblem of a devastated joy | E |
It spoke of glory and a blasted home | F |
Of fleeting honours and disordered fame | D |
And the lone passing of a fragile boy | E |
- | |
- | |
- | |
It was the cradle of the King of Rome | F |
