The Four Princesses At Wilna. A Photograph Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBCDEFDEG| Sweet faces that from pictured casements lean | A |
| As from a castle window looking down | B |
| On some gay pageant passing through a town | B |
| Yourselves the fairest figures in the scene | A |
| With what a gentle grace with what serene | A |
| Unconsciousness ye wear the triple crown | B |
| Of youth and beauty and the fair renown | B |
| Of a great name that ne'er hath tarnished been | C |
| From your soft eyes so innocent and sweet | D |
| Four spirits sweet and innocent as they | E |
| Gaze on the world below the sky above | F |
| Hark there is some one singing in the street | D |
| 'Faith Hope and Love these three ' he seems to say | E |
| 'These three and greatest of the three is Love ' | G |
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
