To Caroline Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB BCBC BCBC DEDE CFCF BBBBThink'st thou I saw thy beauteous eyes | A |
Suffus'd in tears implore to stay | B |
And heard unmov'd thy plenteous sighs | A |
Which said far more than words can say | B |
- | |
Though keen the grief thy tears exprest | B |
When love and hope lay both o'erthrown | C |
Yet still my girl this bleeding breast | B |
Throbb'd with deep sorrow as thine own | C |
- | |
But when our cheeks with anguish glow'd | B |
When thy sweet lips were join'd to mine | C |
The tears that from my eyelids flow'd | B |
Were lost in those which fell from thine | C |
- | |
Thou could'st not feel my burning cheek | D |
Thy gushing tears had quench'd its flame | E |
And as thy tongue essay'd to speak | D |
In sighs alone it breath'd my name | E |
- | |
And yet my girl we weep in vain | C |
In vain our fate in sighs deplore | F |
Remembrance only can remain | C |
But that will make us weep the more | F |
- | |
Again thou best belov'd adieu | B |
Ah if thou canst o'ercome regret | B |
Nor let thy mind past joys review | B |
Our only hope is to forget | B |
George Gordon Byron
