Fragment: Trionfo D' Amore Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCBCACADADEDE| I know how well Love shoots how swift his flight | A |
| How now by force and now by stealth he steals | B |
| How he will threaten now anon will smite | A |
| And how unstable are his chariot wheels | B |
| How doubtful are his hopes how sure his pain | C |
| And how his faithful promise he repeals | B |
| How in one's marrow in one's vital vein | C |
| His smouldering fire quickens a hidden wound | A |
| Where death is manifest destruction plain | C |
| In sum how erring fickle and unsound | A |
| How timid and how bold are lovers' days | D |
| Where with scant sweetness bitter draughts abound | A |
| I know their songs their sighs their usual ways | D |
| Their broken speech their sudden silences | E |
| Their passing laughter and their grief that stays | D |
| I know how mixed with gall their honey is | E |
