Folies De Femmes Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCACAADADAAIn scarlet tunic rare a concubine | A |
With subtle limbs and breasts laid bare | B |
For me to kiss Soft eyes that sadly shine | A |
A nubile maiden slave intensely fair | B |
Strange frightened rose A pagan priestess pale | C |
Wearing a clinging robe of silvergreen | A |
In silken slash d gold a houri frail | C |
With veil d face mere child of seventeen | A |
But though my senses often are akin | A |
To wretched trafficking my soul is gold | D |
And sails upon the winds a harlequin | A |
Unstained by sin and fearless as of old | D |
You are the lovely laughing columbine | A |
Who fills my heart with dazzling amber wine | A |
