Temple De La Douleur Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCD EFEFGGMy soul has suffered breaking on the wheel | A |
Flogging with lead and felt the twinging ache | B |
Of barb d hooks and jagged points of steel | A |
Peine forte et dure slow burning at the stake | B |
Blinding and branding stripping on the rack | C |
The canque and kourbash and the torqu d screw | D |
The boot and branks red scourging on the back | C |
The gallows and the gibbet All for you | D |
- | |
These tortures are as nothing to the pain | E |
That I have suffered when you gaze at me | F |
With cold disdainful eyes You do not deign | E |
To smile or talk or even set me free | F |
Yet once you let me hold your perfumed hand | G |
And danced with me a stately saraband | G |
