The Exile To His Sister Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCE AFAFGAGAAs streams at morn from seas that glide | A |
Rejoicing on their sparkling way | B |
Will turn again at eventide | A |
To mingle with their kindred spray | B |
Even so the currents of the soul | C |
Dear sister wheresoe'er we rove | D |
Will backward to our country roll | C |
The boundless ocean of our love | E |
- | |
You northern star now burning bright | A |
The guide by which the wave tossed steer | F |
Beams not with a more constant light | A |
Than does thy love my sister dear | F |
From stars above the streams below | G |
Receive the glory they impart | A |
So sister do thy virtues glow | G |
Within the mirror of my heart | A |
