Shelley Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCAABBA DEFDEF| Knight errant of the Never ending Quest | A |
| And Minstrel of the Unfulfilled Desire | B |
| For ever tuning thy frail earthly lyre | C |
| To some unearthly music and possessed | A |
| With painful passionate longing to invest | A |
| The golden dream of Love's immortal fire | B |
| In mortal robes of beautiful attire | B |
| And fold perfection to thy throbbing breast | A |
| - | |
| What wonder Shelley if the restless wave | D |
| Should claim thee and the leaping flame consume | E |
| Thy drifted form on Viareggio's beach | F |
| Fate to thy body gave a fitting grave | D |
| And bade thy soul ride on with fiery plume | E |
| Thy wild song ring in ocean's yearning speech | F |
