Venice Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDEDFGFGHDIDJDJD JDJDJKJKLDLD| Night in her dark array | A |
| Steals o'er the ocean | B |
| And with departed day | A |
| Hushed seems its motion | B |
| Slowly o'er yon blue coast | C |
| Onward she's treading | D |
| 'Till its dark line is lost | E |
| 'Neath her veil spreading | D |
| The bark on the rippling deep | F |
| Hath found a pillow | G |
| And the pale moonbeams sleep | F |
| On the green billow | G |
| Bound by her emerald zone | H |
| Venice is lying | D |
| And round her marble crown | I |
| Night winds are sighing | D |
| From the high lattice now | J |
| Bright eyes are gleaming | D |
| That seem on night's dark brow | J |
| Brighter stars beaming | D |
| Now o'er the bright lagune | J |
| Light barks are dancing | D |
| And 'neath the silver moon | J |
| Swift oars are glancing | D |
| Strains from the mandolin | J |
| Steal o'er the water | K |
| Echo replies between | J |
| To mirth and laughter | K |
| O'er the wave seen afar | L |
| Brilliantly shining | D |
| Gleams like a fallen star | L |
| Venice reclining | D |
