The Court Of Reason Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACADCAE A AA thousand doubts and pleadings in a day | A |
Are filed in Empress Reason's court supreme | B |
By angry Love his eyes with anger gleam | B |
Which of us twain hath been more faithful say | A |
'Tis all through me that Cino can display | A |
The sail of fame on life's unhappy stream | B |
Thee quoth I root of all my woe I deem | B |
I found what gall beneath thy sweetness lay | A |
Then he Ah traitorous and truant slave | C |
Are these the thanks thou renderest ingrate | A |
For giving thee a maid without a peer | D |
Thy left cried I slew what thy right hand gave | C |
Not so said he The judge Your wrath abate | A |
I must have time to give true judgment here | E |

Cino da Pistoia | A |

Imitated by Petrarch in the conclusion of the Canzone Quell' antico mio dolce empio signore | A |
