Remembered Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CDECDEHis art was loving Eres set his sign | A |
Upon that youthful forehead and he drew | B |
The hearts of women as the sun draws dew | B |
Love feeds love's thirst as wine feeds love of wine | A |
Nor is there any potion from the vine | A |
Which makes men drunken like the subtle brew | B |
Of kisses crushed by kisses and he grew | B |
Inebriated with that draught divine | A |
- | |
Yet in his sober moments when the sun | C |
Of radiant summer paled to lonely fall | D |
And passion's sea had grown an ebbing tide | E |
From out the many Memory singled one | C |
Full cup that seemed the sweetest of them all | D |
The warm red mouth that mocked him and denied | E |
