In Vita: Cix Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACCADEDEDEThe God of Love and I in wonder stared | A |
Ne'er having gazed on miracles ere now | B |
Upon my lady's smiling lips and brow | B |
Who only with herself may be compared | A |
Neath the calm beauty of her forehead bared | A |
Those twin stars of my love did burn and flow | C |
No lesser lamps again the path might show | C |
To the proud lover who by these had fared | A |
Oh miracle when on the grass at rest | D |
Herself a flower she would clasp and hold | E |
A leafy branch against her snow white breast | D |
What joy to see her in the autumn cold | E |
Wander alone with maiden thoughts possess'd | D |
Weaving a garland of dry crispy gold | E |
